Hayden Butte
Date Added: 18th Sep 2010
Site Type: Rock Art
Country: United States (The Southwest)
Visited: Yes on 5th Dec 2009
Hayden Butte submitted by TimPrevett on 5th Dec 2009. Hayden Butte (pronounced bute) has a lot of petroglyphs when you know where to look. All the glyphs are on sides of the mountain facing the sun (ie. south and east - as it seems is the case with most sites).
Most are recessed off the paths and are inaccesible due to wildlife and heritage preservation but can be viewed adequately from the paths, and with assistance (ie camera zoom, binoculars).
If not used to this environment, be mindful of bobcats, rattlesnakes, cacti and the temperature. It...

Hellstone

Site Type: Long Barrow
Country: England (Dorset)
Visited: Yes on 27th Apr 2005
Hellstone submitted by TimPrevett on 27th Apr 2005. A much earlier example of graffiti on the stone - a curled serpent eating itself. Difficult to spot, thankfully, unlike the nearby recent scratchings.

Hendrefor submitted by TimPrevett on 3rd Jul 2002. Ucheldref Burial Chamber SH551773
Visited Thursday 28th September 2000
SE Pentraeth, off B5109 Pentraeth to Beaumaris road. Two huge piles of stones in a field, basically! Another example of the decay of ancient monuments sad, but one supposes inevitable in many cases. The waves and contours in the rocks on these two are quite interesting to look at.

Hengwm Ring Cairn
Date Added: 18th Sep 2010
Site Type: Ring Cairn
Country: Wales (Gwynedd)
Visited: Yes on 18th Sep 2007
Hengwm Ring Cairn submitted by TimPrevett on 18th Sep 2007. This is a delight not to be missed. If you visit the tombs at Carneddau Hengwm, this is just a few minutes walk away. Take it in, or you'll be kicking yourself. A small ring cairn, with outward leaning stones, and an internal ring recognisable in most of the monument. It appears also to be sited so as to give an impression of being on a ridge. Comparisons with Bryn Cader Faner, which is to the north on another good long, walk, are easy to make.

Hexentanzplatz (Thale)
Date Added: 18th Sep 2010
Site Type: Modern Stone Circle etc
Country: Germany (Saxony-Anhalt)
Visited: Yes on 28th Feb 2007
Hexentanzplatz (Thale) submitted by TimPrevett on 28th Feb 2007. The Diabolical President atop the modern stone circle of Hexentanzplatz. The devilish figures are to mark the site's connection to Walpurgisnacht - May Day Eve - when diabolical deeds and rites were allegedly done. The very name means "Witches' Dancing Place". Now it is a tourist magnet, with spectacular views, a wondrous cable car journey as one of the means to reach the top (this is in the Harz Mountains), and no end of tat pertaining to Witches, Devils, Ghosts and Demons.

High Park Cross Dyke
Date Added: 18th Sep 2010
Site Type: Ancient Village or Settlement
Country: England (Shropshire)
Visited: Yes on 18th May 2004
High Park Cross Dyke submitted by TimPrevett on 18th May 2004. This is showing the damage on the eastern flank of the dyke. If you know what is causing the damage, or why this damage might be happening, I would be interested to hear.
At well over 1100 feet long, High Park Cross Dyke is the longest of the main Long Mynd Bronze Age Cross Dykes. It stretches across a northern hill of The Long Mynd, to the edge of Jonathan's Hollow to the south, and across the hillside of High Park to the north. This forms a barrier east - west across the area concerned.

Hindwell Enclosure
Date Added: 18th Sep 2010
Site Type: Timber Circle
Country: Wales (Powys)
Visited: Yes on 22nd Sep 2008
Hindwell Enclosure submitted by TimPrevett on 22nd Sep 2008. Looking from the lane which partially follows the course of the northern edge of the enclosure, across what would have been its centre; round barrow to the left but hard to make out in this shot. The ploughing goes up to its edge, even arguably upon it.

Hindwell Farm 2 submitted by TimPrevett on 22nd Sep 2008. Spot the round barrow! Nicely shown by the line of the hedge, with the curve of the surviving barrow; this is the day after the All Wales and European Vintage Ploughing Championships. One wonders what a bit of field walking could yield...

Four larger stones with one stone fallen, in a zig-zag pattern; 3 stones about 3 feet tall each, and a long stone at the end is lying. Very impressive this site.

Holyhead Mountain
Date Added: 18th Sep 2010
Site Type: Ancient Village or Settlement
Country: Wales (Anglesey)
Visited: Yes on 14th Apr 2004
Holyhead Mountain submitted by TimPrevett on 14th Apr 2004. At the base of Holyhead Mountain, is this impressive, substantial group of hut circles. In the 1860s in excess of 50 buildings were recorded, but now numbers around 20.
Active settlement was on this location for sometime, and not all the remains seen are contemporary with each other.
Finds at this location, and very nearby, date occupation from mesolithic to Romano British times.
The hut circles seen are obvious, but there are a number of square features. The guidebook likens them to s...

Holywell Racecourse submitted by TimPrevett on 15th Apr 2004. The CADW guidebook lists this as cursus, henge and barrow.
From the back of the picture 1) in front of the hay bales in black 'bin bags', can be seen the raised mound of the barrow; 2) across the centre of the picture, left to right, is a dark line, indicating the henge ditch, and 3) the raised ground coming into the bottom left corner shows the remains of the cursus.

Horncliffe Circle
Date Added: 18th Sep 2010
Site Type: Stone Circle
Country: England (Yorkshire (West))
Visited: Yes on 28th Mar 2005
Horncliffe Circle submitted by TimPrevett on 28th Mar 2005. When visiting the Horncliffe Circle, we disturbed an archaeologist doing some solitary surveying for Bradford Uni, and gave us a very helpful impromptu lecture. He is to the right of the circle, with Rich32, Baz, and Eileen.
He said he'd spied us earlier on some distance away at the Skirtful of Stones and thought "what's on here?" !
