Skara Brae
Date Added: 18th Sep 2010
Site Type: Ancient Village or Settlement
Country: Scotland (Orkney)
Visited: Yes on 3rd Aug 2006
Skara Brae submitted by TimPrevett on 3rd Aug 2006. Trying to get an 'in the monument' photo at Skara Brae is very difficult. Paths go around, over, but not in. Visitor numbers are too high to permit access. Some of the pathways over will have to be closed due to compaction of the neolithic walls underneath. If visitor numbers isn't enough to cause its own problems, the sea is beginning to eat around the coastal defences too. So, this is one of the few angles where one can try to capture an interactive photo.

Sling (Llandegai)
Date Added: 18th Sep 2010
Site Type: Chambered Tomb
Country: Wales (Gwynedd)
Visited: Yes on 23rd Apr 2007
Sling (Llandegai) submitted by TimPrevett on 23rd Apr 2007. The ruinous Sling chambered tomb. A bit of a devil to find. Don't be distracted by the stones on the ridge next to the road. There is also a misleading stone in the middle of the field to the west. This is in deep undergrowth!

St Augustine's Well (Cerne Abbas)
Date Added: 9th Jan 2017
Site Type: Holy Well or Sacred Spring
Country: England (Dorset)
Visited: Yes on 28th Dec 2016. My rating: Condition 4 Ambience 4 Access 4
St Augustine's Well (Cerne Abbas) submitted by ermine on 9th Jan 2005. St Augustine's well in Cerne Abbas is a tranquil place. Walk up Abbey Street and turn into the graveyard - the well is a couple of hundred yards alond the track. The flow is good and was the village's source of drinking water in the last century.
The Abbey nearby is also worth a visit, as well as the nearby Giant hillfigure.

Log Text: Visited in June 2009 first of all on a warm summer's evening and again on 28th December with late afternoon golden sunshine. A very mellow spot - shame we couldn't stop for longer to soak the ambience in.

Stanton Drew - Avenue
Date Added: 18th Sep 2010
Site Type: Multiple Stone Rows / Avenue
Country: England (Somerset)
Visited: Yes on 18th Aug 2006
Stanton Drew - Avenue submitted by TimPrevett on 18th Aug 2006. For evidence of the avenue, go past the NE circle, and look for the linear earthwork. The line is visible here on the LH corner of the picture; the group is on another part of the earthwork. Looking on the aerial pics, and on the ground, this can be traced from 3 o'clock to 12 o'clock outside the Great and NE circles. I did have an excellent picture of this from the ground, but have accidentally overwritten it!

Stanton Moor 1
Date Added: 18th Sep 2010
Site Type: Stone Circle
Country: England (Derbyshire)
Visited: Yes on 7th Mar 2009
Stanton Moor 1 submitted by TimPrevett on 7th Mar 2009. With the aid of Paul & Vicky's "Rock Around the Peak" (still unbeatable for THE Peak District megalithic handbook), I made a determined search for this circle last Saturday.
Basically, as you head north from the Nine Ladies along the more easterly of the routes, keep your eye open for the first field opening up to the east. Stanton Moor 1 is very close to its perimeter. If you can find Stanton Moor 3 in the other direction from Nine Ladies, then you have a good idea what to look for here.

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...
