| Croft Ambrey | Hillfort | England | Herefordshire | Visited | 22nd Jun 2022 | 2 | 4 | 3 | Like Marko’s visit seven years ago, the vegetation and bracken obscured a lot of it, but still, it’s a hillfort with great views! | ||
| Five Barrows (Northumberland) | Barrow Cemetery | England | Northumberland | Visited | 26th Jan 2023 | 2 | 4 | 4 | Balancing on logs dropped over the flooded parts of the footpath by the bridge, then tussock hopping over the boggy areas, but nicer walking over the ridge top to look for the barrows. | ||
| Shrewsbury Museum and Art Gallery | Museum | England | Shropshire | Visited | 6th Mar 2019 | ||||||
| Pave Lane Hillfort | Misc. Earthwork | England | Shropshire | Visited | 14th Mar 2019 | ||||||
| The Stiperstones | Cairn | England | Shropshire | Visited | 24th Oct 2023 | 3 | 5 | 3 | In the clouds, with only ravens and red grouse for company - perfect! | ||
| Caer Caradoc (Church Stretton) | Hillfort | England | Shropshire | Visited | 18th Apr 2024 | 3 | 5 | 3 | Wonderful views all around! The wind was cold and very strong, but you could find good calm shelter between the ramparts and the inner rocks where the ground was level and dry - a place for hut circles? | ||
| Callow Hill Camp | Hillfort | England | Shropshire | Visited | 17th Aug 2024 | 2 | 3 | 4 | A narrow path through dense vegetation and trees follows the top of the main rampart; the excellent views to the west and north are now totally hidden by this growth but can be seen on the approach from Poles Coppice. | ||
| Burrow Hill Camp (Shropshire) | Hillfort | England | Shropshire | Visited | 21st Aug 2024 | 3 | 5 | 3 | Centre overgrown but rampart walk clear, lovely views, able to see far into the distance today. | ||
| Nesscliffe | Hillfort | England | Shropshire | Visited | 10th Oct 2024 | 2 | 3 | 4 | Archaeologists reconstruction of the guard chamber and entrance passage (with a Drystone veneer) in place - very nice, but the rest of the Hillfort is more difficult to see now due to tree clearance in progress and heavy summer overgrowth. | ||
| Old Oswestry Fort | Hillfort | England | Shropshire | Visited | 22nd Oct 2024 | 3 | 4 | 4 | Extensive views for miles from the ramparts, despite being a low hill. Enjoyable walk on a well cared for Hillfort. The southern half and large central area is being grazed by black soay/hebridean sheep (Iron Age sheep) to keep the bracken away - it can damage the archaeology. | ||
| Mitchell's Fold | Stone Circle | England | Shropshire | Visited | 21st Dec 2024 | Winter Solstice sunset, a glimpse of the sun for a few minutes before it disappeared behind clouds and below the horizon. Four friendly strangers in attendance on the very cold and windy site. | |||||
| Stapeley Hill Cairn | Cairn | England | Shropshire | Visited | 30th Dec 2024 | 2 | 5 | 3 | Why here, on the mid point of the saddle, between the two highest points? A carefully chosen placement for its location. Always a lovely walk. | ||
| Holywell Brook (Rorrington) | Holy Well or Sacred Spring | England | Shropshire | Visited | 30th Dec 2024 | 3 | 4 | 2 | I love to come here and see the water issuing out of the green hillside. The two springs always make a gentle tinkle and trickling sound, so peaceful. Always here no matter what the time of year. A sort of magical place. | ||
| Castle Ring (Rorrington) | Hillfort | England | Shropshire | Visited | 30th Dec 2024 | 3 | 5 | 3 | We frequently visit this modest hillfort - it has fantastic views and a lovely peacefull ambience. It's the start of an interesting walk of natural springs, cairns and stone circles.... | ||
| Hoarstones | Stone Circle | England | Shropshire | Visited | 27th Feb 2025 | 2 | 2 | 3 | It's a sad unloved stone circle in a very boggy large field marked "private keep out". Not one I visit very often, I do remember it having official access with an info board 30 years ago. It looked better then but I can't find any photos (it was pre digital camera days) | ||
| Castle Ring (Stiperstones) | Hillfort | England | Shropshire | Visited | 9th Apr 2025 | 2 | 5 | 3 | Relatively easy walk up from Snailbeach car park (compared with the ankle breaking southern Stiperstones path!) Excellent views down into the dingles and across the Shropshire plain. | ||

| Saint-Uzec menhir | Standing Stone (Menhir) | France | Bretagne:Côtes-D'Armor (22) | Visited | 22nd Sep 2019 | 2 | 2 | 5 | It's big with lots of tourists constantly visiting. Strangely, I didn't like the atmosphere here compared to other places. | ||
| Ty-Lia (Île Grande) | Passage Grave | France | Bretagne:Côtes-D'Armor (22) | Visited | 22nd Sep 2019 | 4 | 3 | 5 | The only allée couverte on the tourist map. The lady in the tourist office was surprised that I would like to see any more! There are lots nearby. Thank you Megalithic Portal! | ||

| Barnenez Cairn | Chambered Cairn | France | Bretagne:Finistère (29) | Visited | 21st Sep 2019 | 4 | 4 | 4 | So big, it's difficult to fit into one photo! Interesting how the chambers changed in their construction over time, now easy to see due to the damage at the back. The chambers with the rock art are sealed but the visitor centre has photos. | ||
| Pointe de Primel menhir | Standing Stone (Menhir) | France | Bretagne:Finistère (29) | Visited | 21st Sep 2019 | 4 | 5 | 4 | It's bigger than it looks in the photos! Lovely walk. | ||
| La Maison des Feins | Passage Grave | France | Bretagne:Ille-et-Vilaine (35) | Visited | 19th Sep 2019 | 4 | 5 | 4 | Lovey woodland setting, easy to find - signposted from the village of Tresse (toilets in the village!) | 1 | 1 |
| Roche-aux-Fées (Essé) | Passage Grave | France | Bretagne:Ille-et-Vilaine (35) | Visited | 20th Sep 2019 | 5 | 5 | 5 | This feels so good. I can close my eyes and be transported back - the lovely dark pink red stone. So big! It seems that it has this effect upon everyone who visits. Easy to find from the village of Essé, which has parking and toilets! | ||
| La Maison des Feins | Passage Grave | France | Bretagne:Ille-et-Vilaine (35) | Visited | 10th Jun 2025 | 4 | 5 | 4 | Beautiful setting in the tall trees, lots of birdsong. Is there an ambience higher than 5? | ||

| Menhir de la Hune | Standing Stone (Menhir) | France | Pays de la Loire:Mayenne (53) | Visited | 10th May 2025 | 5 | 5 | 5 | Fortunately there were tractor tracks crossing the field so that I could approach without damaging the crop and have a clear look at the polishing area. A magnificent stone. | ||

About 2000 dateable finds (including engravings and laurel leaf stone tools) have been made due to the stratification in the dig. The second part of the tour involves climbing down long ladder...

| La Berthellière | Polissoir | France | Pays de la Loire:Mayenne (53) | Visited | 10th Jun 2025 | 4 | 4 | 4 | Not seen one of these before! It is signposted to "La Berthellière" but only from the tiny back roads so putting the nearby "Chateau de la Basmaignee" into the satnav helped with orientation when we got lost. | ||

| Cefn Clawdd Settlement and Early Field Systems | Ancient Village or Settlement | Wales | Gwynedd | Visited | 14th Jul 2022 | 2 | 4 | 5 | Worth climbing up the rocky outcrop to get a clear view.

| Pont Scethin Double Cairn | Cairn | Wales | Gwynedd | Visited | 5th Jul 2022 | 1 | 4 | 3 | Coflein led me to believe that there were four mounds from a bronze age cemetery nearby on this side of the road. I don’t believe it! I think the aerial mapping project just saw a trick of the light, and invented them! | ||
| Cefn Clawdd near Ffridd Lwyd | Ring Cairn | Wales | Gwynedd | Visited | 14th Jul 2022 | 4 | 5 | 3 | Lovely ambience at this cairn due to the unusual but clever situation. It’s encircled by low rocky outcrops, then in the distance, surrounded by a bowl of mountains. The builders took great care over this. We didn’t want to leave! | ||
| Bryn Cader Faner | Ring Cairn | Wales | Gwynedd | Visited | 18th Apr 2023 | 3 | 5 | 3 | Path from Eisingrug the wettest I've seen in 30 years visiting. Waterproof boots, gaiters and bog prodders essential. Return journey was via the hut circle settlements on the slopes above the path. Much easier! | ||
| Moel Offrwm | Hillfort | Wales | Gwynedd | Visited | 20th Apr 2023 | Went up the old hard way by the wall, came down the new winding path, much easier on my legs! | |||||
| Craig-y-Dinas (Dyffryn Ardudwy) | Hillfort | Wales | Gwynedd | Visited | 19th May 2023 | 3 | 5 | 3 | Removed someone's rubbish from under the big central rock. Skylarks and a cuckoo applauded! | ||

Always a pleasure to do this walk and to visit the circle location. | ||
| Mynydd Egryn Settlement | Ancient Village or Settlement | Wales | Gwynedd | Visited | 19th Sep 2024 | 3 | 5 | 2 | Absolute pleasure to visit here on a sunny day. We usually make it at least once a year and are getting to know the layout of the sites quite well. There are more hut circles to be found in this enormous field and the field next door, but the gorse is getting quite high so it takes a bit of detecti... Read More |

| Hengwm Ring Cairn | Ring Cairn | Wales | Gwynedd | Visited | 19th Sep 2024 | 4 | 5 | 2 | Beautiful. So stunning that everyone ignores the Mynydd Egryn Settlement 15meters away! | ||
| Coed Cors y Gedol Round House | Ancient Village or Settlement | Wales | Gwynedd | Visited | 1st Mar 2025 | 5 | 4 | A happy day. An old friend appears out of the undergrowth. | |||
| Cors y Gedol Round House Settlement | Ancient Village or Settlement | Wales | Gwynedd | Visited | 1st Mar 2025 | 5 | 4 | It's an old friend that appears only in early spring. We chat. I hear - "Allo! Come inside and meet the missus. Have a nice cup of tea......." These woods are a labyrinth. | |||
| Cors Uchaf E Hut Group | Ancient Village or Settlement | Wales | Gwynedd | Visited | 5th Apr 2025 | 3 | 5 | 3 | Hunting the six hut circles in the field is good fun. Best time of year when the bracken is low. | ||
| Clogwyn Arllef Hillfort and Field System | Hillfort | Wales | Gwynedd | Visited | 11th Apr 2025 | 3 | 5 | 3 | Simple but very steep 30 minute walk along a waymarked footpath from Gwern Einion. Excellent 360 views from the top. The footpath has been repaired since my unsuccessful attempt two years ago!

| Cefn Clawdd near Ffridd Lwyd | Ring Cairn | Wales | Gwynedd | Visited | 22nd May 2025 | 4 | 5 | 2 | It's a hidden gem in the bog. Deliberately placed there thousands of years ago, I think. It has good viewing from the ridge. | ||
| Craig-y-Dinas (Dyffryn Ardudwy) | Hillfort | Wales | Gwynedd | Visited | 21st May 2025 | 3 | 5 | 2 | Getting to know this Hillfort quite well. It's now possible to understand the complex layout of the entrance passage. | ||

| Corndon Hill 1 | Cairn | Wales | Powys | Visited | 7th Mar 2022 | 2 | 4 | 2 | Second cain in the cairns walk. Time spent hunting the barrow 10 meters to the north and the ring cairn 7 meters to the ESEast. Then 20 meters SSE to the medieval building (listed on MP as Corndon 8) | ||

| Corndon Hill 5 | Cairn | Wales | Powys | Visited | 7th Mar 2022 | 2 | 4 | 2 | Sixth big cairn in the Corndon Hill walk. Again with several shelters dug into it. A really cold harsh wind blowing but we’re carrying on to the last cairn. | ||
| Corndon Hill 6 | Cairn | Wales | Powys | Visited | 7th Mar 2022 | 2 | 5 | 2 | Fantastic views of the landscape as the 7th cairn in the walk is approached. Glad we struggled on to get here. Might start with this one next time as it’s lovely here. | ||

| Corndon Hill 6 | Cairn | Wales | Powys | Visited | 31st Aug 2024 | 5 | 2 | My favourite of all the Corndon Hill cairns! Being slightly lower on its spur, it connects with the landscape below in a beautiful way. | |||
| Caer Din Hillfort | Hillfort | Wales | Powys | Visited | 28th Feb 2025 | It's very close and visible from the Kerry Ridgeway single track road. If the grass verge was dry you could possibly park close to the gate of the field. But everywhere in Shropshire is permanently wet and boggy these days so it's best to park securely in a lay-by closer to Bishops Castle and enjoy ... Read More |
