Bowda Stone Circle
Date Added: 29th Oct 2019
Site Type: Stone Circle
Country: England (Cornwall)
Visited: Yes on 4th Dec 2010
Bowda Stone Circle submitted by TheCaptain on 4th Dec 2010. I had never heard of a stone circle here until I saw the Pastscape entry here, so thought I’d better go and have a look.
Certainly there are a couple of large side set slabs standing on edge here, with others fallen and laying about which could conceivably be remnants of a stone circle.

Site Type: Ring Cairn
Country: England (Cornwall)
Visited: Yes on 5th Dec 2010
East Moor ring cairn submitted by TheCaptain on 5th Dec 2010. The ring cairn centrally on the top of the hill in the middle of East Moor is a splendid example, about 15 metres in diameter. It has a rubble bank about 1 metre wide surrounding a nicely flattened centre.
Pictures cannot do this ring cairn any justice.
View looking southeast towards Trewortha Tor.

It is clearly an edge set stone positioned here, 2 feet tall, 3 feet wide and having lost its top.

Gray Hill summit cairn
Date Added: 29th Oct 2019
Site Type: Round Cairn
Country: Wales (Monmouthshire)
Visited: Yes on 2nd Apr 2004
Gray Hill summit cairn submitted by TheCaptain on 2nd Apr 2004. Grey Hill or Gray Hill, Monmouthshire. Cairn atop hill at ST434936
Right on the top of the hill, with spectacular views all around is the remains of an ancient, but well worn cairn. I could have been imagining it, but did this cairn once have a kerbed ring around it, and some internal structures ?

Felton Hill Long Barrow T26
Date Added: 29th Oct 2019
Site Type: Chambered Tomb
Country: England (Somerset)
Visited: Yes on 26th Apr 2004
Felton Hill Long Barrow T26 submitted by TheCaptain on 26th Apr 2004. Felton Hill chambered Cairn, Somerset, ST516649.
Having read the description of this site again, it became obvious that the described cairn was the oval barrow near to the west end of the common by the round house. So I went to have another look, with more determination to get pictures.
This oval barrow is approx 20m by 15m, and has a north south axis. It is very overgrown, and as can be seen in the picture, lies right at the end of the runway of Bristol airport.
