Burial Chamber

Fieldnotes

Visited 11.10.13

As I was passing on my way to Crawley Rocks Promontory Fort I just had to stop by and say ‘hello’.

The site is pretty much how I remembered it although it was a bit more overgrown.
The inside of the chamber was full of high nettles.

I had however forgotten that the stones had a pretty pink hue to them.
Quite unusual I thought?

Although the Burial Chamber is collapsed and in a bit of a state I still think it is quite impressive and certainly worth a visit when in the area.

As mentioned before, you can’t see the tomb from the path. You need to come off the path to your right and have a wander around the brambles until you find it – not difficult.
