Carn Mor (Lismore)
Date Added: 3rd Feb 2020
Site Type: Cairn
Country: Scotland (Argyll)
Visited: Yes on 18th May 2019
Carn Mor (Lismore) submitted by PAB on 18th May 2019. Carn Mor, Lismore.
We could not readily identify convenient access to the field where the cairn was located, so this is the best I could achieve.
The long walk back to catch the ferry meant I've had to leave this for someone else to capture properly!

Carn Llidi submitted by pab on 4th Feb 2007. Site in Pembrokeshire (Sir Benfro)
The Main Chamber sitting just below the wonderful top of Carn Llidi, a wonderful place to spend a winter Sunday with the sun shining on the Irish Sea, just as the sun was shining on the Irish Rubgy team in Cardiff!

Log Text: Visited on 23rd July while on a 'field visit' walk organised by the South Wales Geologists' Association, led by Alan Bowring.
Focus for the walk was the local geology and industrial archaeology, so we didn't get up to the cairn itself and I cannot therefore report how damaged its centre now is. Definitely worth a walk though - we started from car park next to playground in Ystradowen SN752124 and did a circular 9 mile route via Bryn-henllys Bridge, mainly using the routes of old tramways once used in local quarrying activities.
There are some very boggy stretches - expect many little diversions to avoid!
Carn Euny Village

Carn Euny Village submitted by AngieLake on 31st Oct 2004. This view over the Carn Euny Settlement was taken in two shots, which are cobbled together to give an idea of how it looked in March 2004. Bec-Zog's pic is similar to this.

Carn Euny Fogou
Date Added: 20th Nov 2013
Site Type: Souterrain (Fogou, Earth House)
Country: England (Cornwall)
Visited: Would like to visit
Carn Euny Fogou submitted by AngieLake on 2nd Jan 2005. This shot shows the huge but low (4.5ft - 1.4m) SE-facing doorway of the Carn Euny 'Beehive Hut' underground chamber, with its own short passage leading into the fogou passage which runs SW/NE, (but snaking here with a flatter, more W/E run), just outside the doorway. It is thought that the Beehive Hut (chamber) was the first structure on this site, so that originally the eastern wall of the fogou passage would not have obstructed the view. It is possible that the sun was meant to shine down t...

Carn Briw
Date Added: 18th Sep 2010
Site Type: Cairn
Country: Wales (Pembrokeshire)
Visited: Yes on 21st Oct 2007
Carn Briw submitted by pab on 21st Oct 2007. Carn Briw, from the northern slopes of Mynydd Ingli, on which the wonderful Carn Ingli 'sits' - or should that be 'is enthroned'?
COFLEIN refers to this as simply "A disturbed cairn, 17m in diameter and 1.8m high." The name Carn Briw in fact means just ...'shattered heap of stones'!
What a sad name for such an atmospheric place.

Capel Nebo Stone
Date Added: 18th Sep 2010
Site Type: Standing Stone (Menhir)
Country: Wales (Carmarthenshire)
Visited: Yes on 23rd Jul 2007
Capel Nebo Stone submitted by pab on 23rd Jul 2007. As PaulM says, this stone does not lend itself to viewing! I aim to try and get even closer when the hedgerows are not quite so dense.
Little information available from the RCAHMW site (their ref NPRN304277), except its estimated height as being 2.4m, and its more precise location as SN13852540.

Calling Low Dale
Date Added: 24th May 2015
Site Type: Cave or Rock Shelter
Country: England (Derbyshire)
Visited: Yes on 9th Feb 2015
Calling Low Dale submitted by pab on 9th Feb 2015. Photo provided by Alexis Lambourne:
"The cave / shelter makes use of a natural overhang in the cliff which makes a roof, this has been added to by enclosing it with a dry stone wall. The enclosed space is small (~6 ft long and maybe 4 feet wide). It is dry-ish, but the strata of the limestone rock just there is vertical making the roof quite loose and a bit drippy. Definitely more of a shelter than a 'home'. "

Callanish I submitted by pab on 19th Oct 2011. Although nearby Callanish II and III can be seen fairly well from the main site, it isn't very easy to appreciate that from photos - so hopefully this composite will help those who have not (yet) been able to get to this glorious place.

Caerau Gaer-1 submitted by pab on 25th Apr 2010. Caerau Gaer hillfort, this hidden gem commands wonderful views south over the valley, whilst its close neighbour (Llanddewi Gaer) looks north towards the Precelli Hills.
The lanes linking the two hilltops have the incomparable feel of ancient trackways....with a fox happily wandering along ahead of me!

Caer Caradoc (Church Stretton)
Date Added: 19th Jan 2016
Site Type: Hillfort
Country: England (Shropshire)
Visited: Would like to visit
Caer Caradoc (Church Stretton) submitted by TimPrevett on 28th Jun 2004. Caer Caradoc, taken from a northwest angle on a lovely summer's morning. Indeed, this offers some formidable defense. If this were the place of Caratacus' last stand against the Romans, this would have indeed been something difficult to conquer, even by Roman standards. However, there is no evidence to confirm this suggestion.
