The Avenue
Date Added: 25th Jan 2025
Site Type: Ancient Trackway
Country: England (Wiltshire)
Visited: Yes on 25th Jan 2025. My rating: Condition 2 Ambience 4 Access 4
The Avenue submitted by TimPrevett on 10th Oct 2006. Looking NE along the last stretch of The Avenue. I've appended, albeit somewhat crudely, some lines to show the course of the outside of the parallel banks, and their *approximate* direction swinging off to the east. The tan line in the distance shows the line of some of the Cursus, which predates the Avenue considerably.

Therfield Heath submitted by Thorgrim on 16th Sep 2003. There are ten Bronze Age round barrows at this prominent location - one of the best in eastern England. Surrounded by golfers which makes a site visit hazardous. Bunkers often mislead the barrow hunter but this group is unmistakeable.
