Sherberton Row

Sherberton Row submitted by Brian Byng on 7th Feb 2002. Sherberton Double Stone Row.
First recognised by me in 1997 and now listed. An unimpressive row with the stones barely showing above the turf. Location SX 6392 7328 It runs almost N/S & can be traced for about 100m. It appears to be aligned on the large
adjacent Sherberton Stone Circle to the south. The discovery of a row in association with another stone circle on Dartmoor raises the
possibility that more of the stone circles that now stand alone may have had rows.

Log Text: Parking for one vehicle is available at SS 71737 39352. Care should be taken not to impede the farm track or highway. From here take the footpath north to SS 71755 39688. Head westward from this point across the common to the row. There is no footpath and the going is uneven and inevitably slow.

Shovel Down Fourfold Circle submitted by SandyG on 29th Jul 2015. The elaborate cairn at the upper end of Row 2. Many cairns at the end of rows are simple unassuming structures but this one does not fall into that category. (28th April 2013).

Shovel Down row 1 submitted by SandyG on 29th Jul 2015. Row 1 is composed almost entirely of tiny stones protruding only slightly through the turf. This photograph shows three of these stones. Can you spot them. Most of the others are hidden beneath the dense vegetation that covers much of this area. (28th April 2013).

Skara Brae
Date Added: 8th Oct 2015
Site Type: Ancient Village or Settlement
Country: Scotland (Orkney)
Visited: Yes on 8th Oct 2015
Skara Brae submitted by SandyG on 8th Oct 2015. The walk from the visitor centre to the site is marked with stones representing special events in history. The first one denotes landing on the moon in 1969. The last time I was at Skara Brae was the day after the landing. So the distance between the wall and the first stone is also the time between my visits. (7th June 2015).

Log Text: This is not an easy stone row to get to. As well as a decent map, stout footwear is a must. Progress is likely to be slow and it is a good idea to allocate a whole day and enjoy the amazing if somewhat arduous landscape that you will inevitably encounter. Parking is available at NF 84842 73473. From here walk uphill to the fence at around NF 85127 73333. Follow the fence until around NF 85794 72488 and then head towards the long cairn at NF 85684 72046. This cairn is well worth visiting and may offer an opportunity for a break before continuing towards Sgealtrabhal. Taking care to avoid the lochans you will arrive at a deep ditch which needs to be carefully crossed. From here head towards the summit. This row should only be visited when the visibility is good.
