| Little Almscliff | Rock Outcrop | England | Yorkshire (North) | Visited | 14th Sep 2017 | 3 | 4 | An outcrop of which seems to be the site for graffiti over a long period of time. Some cup type marks but of dubious origin. Some unusual markings and symbols. No doubt it has been attracting visitors all this time. Hard to tell what is old and what is new. A giveaway is when people put the date on ... Read More |

| Cerro da Vila | Ancient Village or Settlement | Portugal | Faro | Visited | 28th Dec 2015 | 3 | 4 | 5 | Cerro da Vila is sited in Vilamoura on the Algarve, just down the road from the main post office. It is mainly a Roman site but is probably resting on an earlier settlement. It is the subject of proper archaeological investigation and the whole site is being extended gradually. It is part of a museu... Read More |

| Alcalar Monument 7 | Chambered Tomb | Portugal | Faro | Visited | 26th Dec 2013 | 5 | Easy enough to find but watch out. Closed 25/12/2013 - 01/01/2014 despite all the information saying that it was only closed on Christmas Day. I arrived and found an A4 piece of paper on the entrance with this information. Apparently it is always closed on a Monday. | ||||
| Silves Archaeological Museum | Museum | Portugal | Faro | Visited | 25th Jan 2013 | 5 | 5 | Located on the Rua da Porta de Loule, Silves. Quite small as museums go but well set out and plenty to see. There is even a restored Moorish well in the centre of the floor. Relocated menhirs and standing stones are located in the main area. The exhibits range from prehistoric to Moorish.

| Xemxija Tombs | Rock Cut Tomb | Malta | Mainland | Visited | 26th Dec 2012 | 3 | 4 | The tombs start about 20 metres from the road. Look for a couple of large piles of stones which mark where they are. Like many sites in Malta they are not signposted and you virtually have to be on top of them before you see them. There are houses on the other side of the road. Start half-way down t... Read More |

| Blandford Forum Stones | Standing Stones | England | Dorset | Visited | 3rd Oct 2012 | 3 | 4 | 5 | Easy enough to find, but also easy to walk by. On West Street.

One stone is beside the bridge at the rear of the recycle bins (as mentioned in a previous posting). The others (again as... Read More |
