Log Text: Difficult to see a cromlech among the stones of the alignment from ground level. It could simply be a case of missing stones making the appearance of a circle.

Crête-des-Barmes, St. Leonard
Trip No.19 Entry No.4 Date Added: 26th Oct 2021
Site Type: Rock Art
Country: Switzerland (Wallis)
Visited: Couldn't find on 21st Aug 1999
Log Text: We approached the site from the south aiming for 46.265, 7.42044, but those coordinates were located seemingly on the face of a cliff. Further research is needed before the second attempt. Perhaps the pictures are of a vertical face best accessed from the N/NW.
Court Cave
Date Added: 11th Jul 2024
Site Type: Cave or Rock Shelter
Country: Scotland (Fife)
Visited: Yes on 27th Jun 2024. My rating: Condition 4 Ambience 4 Access 5
Court Cave submitted by johnur on 13th Nov 2018. West entrance to Court Cave in September 2018. Comparison with old photos on Canmore will show that the ground level outside the cave is now several feet higher than it was 100 years ago. The top of the old wall in the Canmore photos is now just below the present ground level. This is due to pit waste from Michael Colliery accumulating on the foreshore to establish a ground level which became permanent when rock armour was installed in the late 20th century to prevent coastal erosion.

Log Text: This structure looks like it could have come right out of any of the village cemeteries around here, with its headstone and low walls. It was even sporting a bouquet at the foot of the grave. All that was missing was an grave candle.
