Girth Cross (Canongate)
Date Added: 25th Sep 2022
Site Type: Ancient Cross
Country: Scotland (Midlothian)
Visited: Yes
Girth Cross (Canongate) submitted by Anne T on 9th Oct 2019. Standing on the pedestrian island at the western side of the roundabout, I had to wait for ages to get a view without traffic whizzing by on either side. The outer wall Scottish Parliament building is on the left hand side of the photograph. This view looks west up Canongate. If I hadn't have known, from our Treasure Trail clues, that this was the site of the cross, I would have passed it by, but it marks the western limit of the Girth of Holyrood, the largest sanctuary in Scotland, and the las...

Canongate Mercat Cross

Site Type: Ancient Cross
Country: Scotland (Midlothian)
Visited: Yes
Canongate Mercat Cross submitted by Anne T on 9th Oct 2019. Standing in the NE corner of the courtyard, looking SW to Canongate. The cross looks modern, but then Canmore (and British Listed Buildings) tell us that the octagonal cross shaft is original; the rest are 'modern' replacements.

Date Added: 25th Sep 2022
Site Type: Ancient Village or Settlement
Country: England (Yorkshire (North))
Visited: Yes
York Roman remains submitted by jeffrep on 7th Apr 2020. The English city of York has, since Roman times, been defended with walls of one form or another. In 71 A.D., the Romans built a fort occupying about 50 acres on the banks of the River Ouse, and surrounded it with a rectangle of walls. This photo is the Multangular Tower, that was constructed as part of a series of eight similar defensive towers, built from 209 to 211 A.D. It has ten sides and is almost 30 feet tall.

Site Type: Cairn
Country: England (Shropshire)

The Stiperstones submitted by TimPrevett on 28th Jun 2004. A cairn just north east of Manstone Rock.
"The Stiperstones" is the name for a hill on the far west reaches of Shropshire, well into The Welsh Marches, overlooking the Welsh border. It is the second highest hill in Shropshire, affording superb views in all directions, and having several bronze age cairns along its ridge.
The cairns themselves, excepting the largest, can be quite hard to locate. At a very reductionist level, they are basically piles of stone amidst a whole ridge of piles of...

Site Type: Round Barrow(s)
Country: England (Shropshire)
Visited: Yes on 4th Nov 2021
Shooting Box Disc Barrow submitted by TimPrevett on 25th Apr 2004. The best, most obvious barrow remaining on The Long Mynd, and the sole known example of a disc barrow in Shropshire.
It covers a circular area some 170 feet in diameter, with an outer raised heather-covered ring circa 15 feet wide, and the inner green mound 60 feet across and up to 8 feet high.
It is so named due a grouse shooting box that was on its northern side until 1992; it now leaves a large depression in the green mound, with a similar depression on the east side, suggesting another...
