Webb Stone

There is not one stone in Bradley (pronounced Braid-lee), not two, but three! In the parish church of All Saints (which is on the highest part of the village, and is thought likely to be a Christianised pagan site), there is a local guidebook, "A Chronicle of Bradeley - The Story of an English Village 1000-2000AD" by William & Anne Wilkinson. Despite its subtitle, page 5 does have entries on its monuments prior to 1000AD.
These stones are in fact "glacial erratics...

Welshampton Bowl Barrow
Date Added: 18th Sep 2010
Site Type: Round Barrow(s)
Country: England (Shropshire)
Visited: Yes on 15th Jan 2005
Welshampton Bowl Barrow submitted by TimPrevett on 15th Jan 2005. The barrow adjoining the road in Welshampton; impressive stature - shame about the road cutting it in half, and the telegraph pole!
A good view into the enclosure, and idea of the surrounding countryside is possible by standing on the bank above the pavement. Snowdrops were growing on the barrow today (Sat 15th Jan 2005); an encouraging sign of the life stirring in the ground again.

West Kennet Avenue submitted by TimPrevett on 22nd May 2006. The West Kennet Avenue, looking uphill towards Avebury. Perhaps I have watched too much Children of the Stones, but it is easy to see profiles of people in these stones.

West Park Boulder
Date Added: 18th Sep 2010
Site Type: Natural Stone / Erratic / Other Natural Feature
Country: England (Cheshire)
Visited: Yes on 19th Sep 2006
West Park Boulder submitted by TimPrevett on 19th Sep 2006. Another perspective on the enormous glacial erratic in West Park; it's a shame this hadn't been exposed for millenia like many glacial erratics, as the more I have visited the park the more anthropomorphic features I spot in the stone. Given time this could have developed some folklore - but it just resides in a very pleasant park, and that's it.

Log Text: Nightmare to find if you don’t know! Visited in the last hour of daylight today, thick fog at times. The track which is best used for approaching heavily waterlogged and unavoidably so in places, ankle deep, snowfall melting. Spectacular site, and seem to be able to appreciate it more than the previous visits in June 2010, 2003 and probably late 90s.
Wetton Low
Date Added: 18th Sep 2010

Country: England (Staffordshire)
Visited: Yes on 30th Jul 2006
Wetton Low submitted by TimPrevett on 30th Jul 2006. Wetton Low - bowl barrow. Many of the barrows in this area are heavily depleted, with field boundaries running over them. This is one of the easier barrows to spot, courtesy largely of the trig point.

SS854463
Date Visited Wednesday 3rd May 2000
These two sizeable stones, likely barrow remnants, situated a couple miles west of Porlock, and several miles east of Lynton, are easily accessible.
Heading west from Porlock (the hill coming out of Porlock is VERY steep and not for the faint hearted!), keep an eye out for a fork in the A39. When you see the fork, keep going along the A39; to the right there are two car parks; take the second car park, as this puts you within one ...

Quartz stones are everywhere, scattered around loose on the ground. Thanks to the book Ancient Exmoor I was able to follow these quartz rocks on through the hedge at the back of the photo, across the road and into the field the other side, and for several hundred yards distance after the road.

Whittington Castle
Date Added: 18th Sep 2010
Site Type: Artificial Mound
Country: England (Shropshire)
Visited: Yes on 16th Dec 2003
Whittington Castle submitted by TimPrevett on 16th Dec 2003. SJ 325313. A barrow-like mound (possibly re-used barrow) at Whittington Castle - not disimilar from ones at Little Moreton Hall in Cheshire, or Boscobel House further east in Shropshire, near the Staffs border. A woman we spoke with here said that soil-core tests done here date contemporary with Old Oswestry Hillfort; she was adamant that the inhabitants of the fort actually dwellt here, and only moved to the fort in times of threat.

Wideford Hill submitted by TimPrevett on 7th Oct 2006. Wideford Chambered Tomb, viewed from the south, Weds 4th October. I found the tomb to be one of the lowest to tombs to access the side chambers, and also the most muddy! Fantastic views to the north and west from its top, too.

Winterbourne Steepleton
Date Added: 18th Sep 2010
Site Type: Burial Chamber or Dolmen
Country: England (Dorset)
Visited: Yes on 21st May 2005
Winterbourne Steepleton submitted by TimPrevett on 21st May 2005. A distant view of the stones at Winterborne Steepleton, from the roadside. Given I had already two fields of bovine close encounters that morning, I was not prepared for another!
The two stones lie halfway up the hillside within farmland on the west side of the road from Hardy Monument to Winterborne Steepleton.
One cow looks mockingly at me from the stones either side of it.

SS836343
Counted 30 stones, many under the heather & some lying loose on the ground. It is a large diameter circle making it impossible to photograph as a whole. There are four larger stones at the top end of the circle and four more the same at the bottom end.
