West Kennet Barrow submitted by Horatio on 22nd Sep 2024. huh...found another photo I managed to get, accidentally admittedly of West Kennet Barrow whilst aiming for Silbury Hill. Looks like a dog fight has happened in that sky too.

Log Text: A good walk up the hill through a few fields, when we went on Monday plastic grip sheeting was being pinned to the ground on the path up between the fields. Car park in the lay by opposite Silbury Hill

Shot inside the Eastern edge of the Circle, looking due north.
We have the NorthEast Trilithon on the left with the morning-shadow of Stones 6/7/107 falling across it.
Bluestone 32-C is in the shadow of Stone 6.
It was a lovely morning!

Log Text: £14.50 admission fee now, English Heritage site, a good 25 minute walk up to the stones from the controversial visitors centre, buses do run for people with children or mobility problems, if you want the audio tour it's another £2- a rip off l think

Log Text: Well sign poated, as is The Cove in the village. A couple of parking spaces available near the gate leading to the circle. I could only look from the wall at the edge of the field as it was extremely muddy- the circle is on farmland with permitted access and had been used for cattle so was very churned up. Could of been amazing going to the stones with the low winter sun

Log Text: Well signposted and the stones are literally in the pub garden by the church. A small car park near some steps leading up the stones is free of charge. Not very atmospheric though with tables and chairs around and rabbit hutches nearby!

Log Text: A very interesting burial camber. A long walk require from the National Trust car park (charges apply) , the sign post said 1 1/2 miles but l took a route near the Uffington Horse so it was nearly four miles there on very muddy paths. Great site though, reasonably well sign posted (although l did wonder when l was a mile down the track leading to it and qondered whether l had passed it!) Very clean area, atmospheric but isolated

Nine Stones Close submitted by funsize on 4th Jun 2007. Seen from the south with just a hint of sunshine illuminating the frozen landscape around the stones. The guardian oak tree is the perfect companion to the last remaining stones of what was once a much larger monument.

Long Meg And Her Daughters submitted by nicoladidsbury on 13th Jul 2005. Long Meg in midsummer moonlight. The solstice night is very short, but when you're waiting for the sun to rise, it gives plenty of opportuntiy to experiment with photos! I took this photo around 2am, in the middle of the solstice night. The moon was shining very brightly casting beautiful moonlight shadows, it felt very magical. I turned up my ISO rating to catch as much light as I could, and set the timer for 30 seconds. This is the result. I know its a grainy picture, and rather odd, but the b...

I loved it there though- great energies although many stones seem to be missing
