Trendle Ring
Date Added: 29th Apr 2022
Site Type: Ancient Village or Settlement
Country: England (Somerset)
Visited: Saw from a distance on 26th Apr 2022
Trendle Ring submitted by mattimpey on 15th Sep 2008. Hopefully you can just make out the single bank and ditch of what I think is Trendle Ring on a ridge of a Quantock hillside.
It is a single ditch and rampart enclosure about 130m above sea level.
The bracken was to thick to hike across in September so I hope to visit again in the winter when it has all died down or I find someone who knows where the path to it is.

Cornridge SE submitted by TheCaptain on 7th Jun 2004. Corn Ridge cairn, Dartmoor, Devon SX551891
The remains of a nice large cairn can be found at the summit of Corn Ridge, about 10m diameter.

There is also what seems to be the remains of a circle of stones surrounding it with about 2 metres extra diameter.

Merrivale Menhir submitted by AngieLake on 10th Apr 2015. This shot shows the "smaller pillar" that Butler describes, in relation to the menhir and the cairn 6 pit. He says: "The menhir, 3.1 m high, still stands in its original position, 42 m almost due south from the centre of the stone circle. There is no evidence that the smaller pillar, 2 m long, lying a few meters away ever stood upright, but it was erected in 1895 in the pit alongside, toppling again a few years later. Between these two stones cairn C6 (3.0 x 0.3 m) has a central pit. Three st...
