Site Type: Stone Circle
Country: Wales (Gwynedd)
Visited: Yes on 18th Sep 2007
Ffridd Newydd submitted by TimPrevett on 18th Sep 2007. Some disparate stones based around a very wide circular earthwork are all that could be made out here. One is put in mind of an enormous embanked circle.

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.

The Bulwarks (Breedon on the Hill)
Date Added: 18th Sep 2010
Site Type: Hillfort
Country: England (Leicestershire and Rutland)
Visited: Yes on 23rd Sep 2007
The Bulwarks (Breedon on the Hill) submitted by TimPrevett on 23rd Sep 2007. This is on the southern end of the hill, ramparts survive better, IIRC, on the western side, but time and incoming heavy rain were against me on this visit. Take in the church, too, which heaves with history from Anglo-Saxon, Norman, and beyond!

Woodman's Cross
Date Added: 18th Sep 2010
Site Type: Barrow Cemetery
Country: England (Dorset)
Visited: Yes on 3rd May 2008
Woodman's Cross submitted by TimPrevett on 3rd May 2008. Four bowl barrows overlooking Wool, one mounted by a trig point, a little way north east from Woodman's Cross. Way before I was interested in stones and lumps and bumps, as a young teenager I'd come to this hill to take photos of the trig point against sunrises / sunsets, or stop for a snack on a long walk. Now I know what it was I was really wanting to photo. Coming back years later the barrows were so obvious... they were just part of the hill when I was a kid!
