Seven Barrows (Hampshire)
Date Added: 17th Feb 2021
Site Type: Barrow Cemetery
Country: England (Hampshire)
Visited: Yes on 1st Apr 2013. My rating: Condition 3 Ambience 2 Access 4
Seven Barrows (Hampshire) submitted by wiztwas on 29th Aug 2005. Only four barrows that can be seen from the north bound A34. The first and biggest is spoilt by not only the road noise, but also the high voltage powerlines crackling overhead.
The other three barrows can not be seen from this side.
You can see one of the others, on the other side of the road, from the road.

Rollright Stones submitted by Energyman on 21st Dec 2020. This was the closest the weather forecast would allow me to get to this year's solstice sunrise, 20/12/20 8:30am. Luckily very little cloud. The shot is from the altar as I call it, through the entrance at the King's Men, Rollrights.
This alignment was calculated by Jack Morris Eyton, though he never got the chance to confirm it.

Ring of Brodgar submitted by Dodomad on 12th Apr 2025. Back in 2022, historian Tristan Hughes visited Orkney to film part of the Mysteries of Prehistoric Scotland. Although the three programmes were initially for History Hit TV subscribers, the full series can now be viewed by all as a single, two-hour long documentary.
In it we hear from, among others, Professor Jane Downes, the director of the UHI Institute, at the Ring of Brodgar and Skara Brae; Dr Antonia Thomas at the Unstan stalled cairn; Nick Card at the Ness of Brodgar; Roy Towers on Gr...

Ri Cruin submitted by caradoc68 on 23rd Feb 2012. This lovely cairn dates from the Bronze Age and is pretty new when it comes to the Kilmartin landscape. Hidden away in some trees just of the beaten track with its two kist's, this Cairn has a lot to offer with its large Kist's and its rock art of axeheads and possibly a caving of a boat in one of these kists !!.

Log Text: It is surprising that such an impressive and easy to access site is so little known - it is almost 'hidden in plain sight' an easy 5 minute walk from the hamlet of Rhoslan. The size of the capstone really needs to be seen to be appreciated!

Pentre Ifan submitted by Horatio on 22nd Jun 2020. A year later and back at Pentre Ifan for the solstice sunset, all on my own some (apart from a 13yr old Jack Russell this time) I Was expecting at least to see one other (person not Jack Russell) at this site for the sunset.
That morning I'd gone to see the sunrise at Gors Fawr stone circle and even left my house in the rain knowing there was zero chance of seeing a sunrise, I definitely was not disappointed, crap weather but I enjoyed being amongst the stones as the solstice sun rose, the cu...

Log Text: An unexpected bonus when walking from the Merry Maidens to The Pipers! It is eroded but still very much recognisable although as it sits by the roadside some care is needed when viewing it.

Minions Mound submitted by windowman on 21st Jan 2012. Minions Mound, a bronze age cairn that is situated by the car park for the Hurlers stone circle site. Easy to miss, many if not all the visitors to the car park are probably unaware just what this small mound is. The mound was damaged when the walls for the adjacent cottages were built, and half the mound was cut away, forming a 'D' shape. The cairn gave it's name to the village of Minions, which was previously called Cheewring Railway, a major junction point for the original Liskeard and Carad...

Merrivale SW row 3 submitted by AngieLake on 29th Oct 2004. In the foreground, Merrivale Single Row 3 (see thecaptain's overview plan) at sunset on 21st September, the day before the Autumn Equinox, 2004. In the distance, in the glare of the setting sun, can be seen the two west end stones of the southern row. Two other taller stones on the south side of that southern row are also visible above centre, and to right of pic. ('Thecaptain' has a theory that these, and other taller stones in the rows, align with the menhir at certain times of the year.) T...

Merrivale North Row submitted by stewart on 12th Oct 2003. Grid Ref SX 555 747
There are two, main, rows at Merrivale - North and South.
The north row consists of two lines of stones, aligned east -west and nearly 200m long.
However, the two lines of stones are only about 1m apart so you can only just walk between them. It has larger stones at the west end and a blocking stone at the east.
The southern row doesn't start or finish on the same alignment, is not parallel to the northern one and was, probably, not built at the same time.
