Red Farm
Date Added: 18th Sep 2010
Site Type: Stone Circle
Country: Wales (Conwy)
Visited: Yes on 6th Oct 2004
Red Farm submitted by TimPrevett on 6th Oct 2004. There are a couple features of interest in the field of the Red Farm circle that give something to consider as part of the bigger picture.
Further down the field, to the right hand side, there is a large mound of stones. It is unclear as to what exactly this is - field clearance? There is a good circular bank of stones beneath the surface, so I'm not entirely convinced it is just field clearance.
In this picture there are a few stones of the surviving Red Farm circle to the rear. Perhaps s...

Robin Hood's Chair
Date Added: 18th Sep 2010
Site Type: Stone Circle
Country: England (Shropshire)
Visited: Yes on 28th Oct 2004
Robin Hood's Chair submitted by TimPrevett on 28th Oct 2004. Most definetly nothing left here, at least obviously! In places, dense tree growth, plenty of bracken, certainly some mounds - but impossible to tell.
A precipitous drop into a quarry to the south east lends credence that the mounds that are there are due to quarry spoil, and nothing ancient.
This is one of seven locations for possible Shropshire stone circles, besides the two known circles.
See main entry for more details.

The Whetstones
Date Added: 18th Sep 2010
Site Type: Stone Circle
Country: Wales (Powys)
Visited: Yes on 26th Dec 2004
The Whetstones submitted by TimPrevett on 26th Dec 2004. The Whetstones taken from the northern summit of Corndon, adjacent the trig point and atop one of its numerous cairns.
The Whetstones are central in the picture, in the greener area; Miss Chitty has described the Whetstones as a circle once as important as the nearby Mitchell's Fold.
The Whetstones can be viewed from the field just to the north, accessed over a stile from the road (top), which is the boundary with Shropshire.
Numerous stones are in the adjoining field boundary; on...

Stapeley Hill Cairn submitted by TimPrevett on 30th Dec 2004. A cairn on Stapeley Hill; see main entry for full details - click on blue text link to the left of the picture.
A composite shot looking towards Corndon Hill, and Mitchell's Fold (out of view).
It was snowing hard at this point on Midwinter Solstice Eve, and even I was questioning my sanity about being in this exposed, beautiful and dramatic landscape.
A biting wind meant I did not stay here for any longer than necessary to get a shot, but on subsequent trips, it will be worth spending tim...

Corndon Hill 3

Site Type: Cairn
Country: Wales (Powys)

Corndon Hill 3 submitted by TimPrevett on 30th Dec 2004. The third cairn on top of Corndon Hill, looking to Corndon Hill 4 and the north east, Midwinter Solstice 2004.
Many of the cairns show signs of interference and digging into; about five such 'holes', three very sizeable, are within this cairn.
View to the north east.

Corndon Hill 4
Date Added: 18th Sep 2010
Site Type: Cairn
Country: Wales (Powys)
Visited: Yes on 30th Dec 2004
Corndon Hill 4 submitted by TimPrevett on 30th Dec 2004. The most north eastern cairn on top of Corndon Hill, Midwinter Solstice 2004. Corndon Hill 3, left, and Corndon Hill 2, top right are also visible.
The cairns are substantial, and writing as one who has walked miles to see much lesser cairns, this hilltop is a worthy visit.
My friend, 'Wintertrees', helps gave a sense of scale.
