| Whitburn Lizards Cave | Cave or Rock Shelter | England | Tyne and Wear | Saw from a distance | 1st Jul 2010 | there is a pub nearby 'The Marsden Grotto' which is formed from a series of caves, set into the cliff. A lift takes you down to it - or there are many steps for the fit. Also nearby is Lizard Lane and Lizard Lane campsite. Perhaps in time past fossilized remains of a reptile/sea creature was found...

| St Warna's Well | Holy Well or Sacred Spring | England | Isles of Scilly | Visited | 1st Sep 2019 | 4 | 4 | 3 | In good condition, water present, fairly well visited. Beautiful setting. Following the coast path from Troy Farm brings you past the Troy Town Maze and then along to St Warna's Well which is at the base of a hill overlooking the sea. | ||
| St Michael's Well, Alnwick | Holy Well or Sacred Spring | England | Northumberland | Visited | 2nd Jul 2013 | 4 | 4 | 5 | interesting that there seems to be no records of this well or why it is dedicated to St. Michael. Any other similar dedications locally? (churches, wells, leylines) | ||
| Samson, North Hill | Burial Chamber or Dolmen | England | Isles of Scilly | Visited | 1st Jun 2019 | 3 | 4 | 1 | It is difficult to visit as the island is a protected area for birds. We were given permission as a group. The sites are all fairly easy to find and in good condition for their age and position. | ||
| Old Hartley Blue Stone | Marker Stone | England | Northumberland | Visited | 1st Jul 2010 | 4 | 4 | 5 | Lovely area, lots of different stones seem to be referred to, but this blue stone easy to find - outside pub. | ||
| Maen Castle | Promontory Fort / Cliff Castle | England | Cornwall | Visited | 1st Oct 2020 | 3 | 3 | 3 | some remnants left - lovely setting | ||
| Helvear Hill | Chambered Cairn | England | Isles of Scilly | Visited | 1st Jun 2019 | 2 | 3 | 3 | These rocky remains are situated in the right place - and look like they were part of a tomb before being disturbed. On the coast path heading from Maypole out to Watermill Bay. | ||
| Alsia Well | Holy Well or Sacred Spring | England | Cornwall | Visited | 1st Jun 2019 | 5 | 5 | 4 | Although it is not a long walk it is a little tricky to find. Climb up the steep stone stile from the lane and then head straight on - over a wooden stile, across a small field, a sign directs you to the next field, then head down the side of the field about 3/4 of the way to the bottomkeep an eye r...
