Log Text: It's a whopper. Higher, I guess, than the front end of West Kennet Long Barrow. At a glance from the road it might be mistaken for a modern pile of earth from road building, or similar construction. The aerial view in Bing's mapping shows a crop mark of sorts with squared off corners at NNE, ESE, SSW and WNW, BUT there is horse racing training going on nearby, although one wouldn't expect squared corners on such a circle?

Pierres Droites (Monteneuf)
Date Added: 9th Jul 2019
Site Type: Stone Row / Alignment
Country: France (Bretagne:Morbihan (56))
Visited: Yes on 20th Apr 2019. My rating: Condition 3 Ambience 2 Access 3
Pierres Droites (Monteneuf) submitted by TheCaptain on 19th Jun 2007. The true extent of these stones was only discovered in the last 20 years or so after a forest fire, yet this set of aligned menhirs is probably one of the most important in France.

Log Text: A good visit with children, I suggest, because the techniques for moving and setting up the stones are demonstrated, and actively so at more popular times of year. For me the site is somewhat lacking in ambience because, although I can't adequately explain why, the replaced stones seem modern.

Log Text: Perhaps consider Maen Melyn as having been a guide for, say, Bronze Age sailors rounding the point, or returning to the mainland from Bardsey, or crossing from Ireland.
If perhaps there was a haar, as there had been on the previous evening, a cliff top standing stone visible above the mist perhaps, would have been invaluable as a guide (if local knowledge was such that it could be usefully aligned on a hilltop or another stone), for sailors returning to the narrow inlet, wouldn't it. Cf. the guide / marker stones up the west side of the Western Isles.

Blue Boar Farm
Date Added: 18th Mar 2019
Site Type: Round Barrow(s)
Country: England (Cheshire)
Visited: Would like to visit
Blue Boar Farm submitted by Vicky on 15th Dec 2001. Blue Boar Farm Barrow, Rainow, near Macclesfield, Cheshire GR: SJ970763
This scheduled conical mound stands in a field opposite Blue Boar Farm and was first mentioned in the 19th century. Standing on a naturally level platform on the ridge top, this tumulus was originally around 20m in diameter but because of ploughing it is now closer to 31m by 26m. It was excavated in 1972, but sadly there are no records as to what, if anything, was found.
