If you pick your route to avoid the wire you'll be fine, especially if you approach from below rather than above. Imbolc today, my favourite day of the year. In past years I probably would have headed out towards Avebury, today I went in the opposite direction to Cricklade where I met up with my good friend 'who has a car' and we headed off into the Cotswolds and Avening. Following your directions we found the private road easily (about 200 metres past the local school) on the other side of the road. We quickly spotted the place where others have scrambled down the bank under the barbed wire - a bit steep but we went carefully. What a great surprise these two little chambered tombs are. Set into the bank they reminded me of the Cork wedge tombs in size - they look down over a fast flowing river which sparkled in the sunshine. Wonderful! Thank you - photo and little field note to follow later. Reply | with quote |  2nd February 2013ce 18:10 In reply to: Re: Thanks Baza and Carl (thesweetcheat) |
