| Kenward stone | Natural Stone / Erratic / Other Natural Feature | England | Wiltshire | Visited | 22nd Jan 2022 | 3 | 3 | 4 | Went up today, on a very cold and frosted ground, temp was around -2 deg C. The stone is visible, down into the workings pit on the farside as you come in through the field gate (from the road). Other than some moss and lichen covering, it is in a good state and the markings are still visible. In my... Read More |

| Devils Den | Burial Chamber or Dolmen | England | Wiltshire | Visited | 26th Aug 2023 | 4 | 4 | 3 | We parked at the top of the area, by the gallops (race track oval) and had a great view of the downs and the valley; it was a beautiful afternoon for walking. I walk on sticks (crutches left in the car) and the ground was good to walk on, a bit bumpy in places, but expected for late Summer pasture. ... Read More |

| Ogbourne St Andrew | Round Barrow(s) | England | Wiltshire | Visited | 9th Jul 2023 | 3 | 4 | 5 | Bowl Barrow within the now boundary of the church, listed megalithic wall and sarcen stones. Met the chap who wrote the report from the last archaeological survey, found on the link below. Very interesting chat with him about the site. A large stone I found under the Yew tree adjacent to the Megalit... Read More |

| Inkpen Long Barrow | Long Barrow | England | Berkshire | Visited | 29th Jan 2023 | 4 | 3 | 4 | Cold, damp Winter afternoon. The footpath from the nearby carpark was fine until the wind hit us! For an overcast day, the views were still spectacular. Not the best of places to meet your maker! Carpark surface was very wet and slippery chalk, quite squelchy so beware if it ices over. You cannot dr... Read More |

| Silbury Hill | Artificial Mound | England | Wiltshire | Visited | 15th Jan 2023 | 3 | 4 | 5 | Went up to visit Silbury Hill to see it in flood and it's not too far from home. It was very wet and muddy underfoot, controversial to perhaps mention but visitors climbing the mound were clearly causing unnecessary erosion because the ground was so waterlogged; and it was tricky for some as one per...

| Ffynnon Fair (Trefnant) | Holy Well or Sacred Spring | Wales | Denbighshire | Visited | 19th Feb 2019 | 2 | 4 | 4 | Gained permission from the farm owner (a really lovely lady). She gave us good directions. I don't know about any public footpath (referring to previous comments) but we made our way with little effort. It is private land and a working farm run by a very hard working farmer and she is very passionat... Read More |
