Roughtor long cairn
Date Added: 25th Sep 2022
Site Type: Cairn
Country: England (Cornwall)
Visited: Yes on 4th Sep 2020
Roughtor long cairn submitted by theCaptain on 18th Oct 2014. Almost 500 metre long stone bank structure, 5 - 8 metres wide and with facing slabs lining its edges, on the northern slopes of Rough Tor. Originally thought to be a sort of boundary structure, an investigation by TimeTeam in 2007 showed it to be more of a cairn type feature.

Rollright Stones
Date Added: 4th Sep 2022
Site Type: Stone Circle
Country: England (Oxfordshire)
Visited: Would like to visit
Rollright Stones submitted by Energyman on 21st Dec 2020. This was the closest the weather forecast would allow me to get to this year's solstice sunrise, 20/12/20 8:30am. Luckily very little cloud. The shot is from the altar as I call it, through the entrance at the King's Men, Rollrights.
This alignment was calculated by Jack Morris Eyton, though he never got the chance to confirm it.

Poundbury
Date Added: 25th Sep 2022
Site Type: Hillfort
Country: England (Dorset)
Visited: Saw from a distance on 24th Sep 2022
Poundbury submitted by JimChampion on 5th Jun 2005. Looking south across the Frome valley at the ramparts of Poundbury hillfort. You can see its rectangular perimeter in this composite picture - no wonder the Romans liked the site. Parts of modern Dorchester can be seen poking out e.g. the keep-like military museum is on the left. (The line in the sky is a power cable that I couldn't get away from).

Visited: Yes on 2nd Sep 2020
Minions Mound submitted by windowman on 21st Jan 2012. Minions Mound, a bronze age cairn that is situated by the car park for the Hurlers stone circle site. Easy to miss, many if not all the visitors to the car park are probably unaware just what this small mound is. The mound was damaged when the walls for the adjacent cottages were built, and half the mound was cut away, forming a 'D' shape. The cairn gave it's name to the village of Minions, which was previously called Cheewring Railway, a major junction point for the original Liskeard and Carad...
