Burial Chamber

Fieldnotes

Whoa man this burial chamber is too close to the road, and the land it's on is owned by a welsh farmer and there was livestock in the field, dissapointing ? No not at all, the deaf toothless farmer was interesting to say the least, and the livestock was four tiny ponies that weren't afraid at all, but it really is too close to the road, even with the insertion of a thick spiny hedge that hides the road and muffles the
noise a bit.
Six stones define the chamber with the capstone half collapsed inwards, the capstone looks slightly the wrong shape for a capstone its thicker than it is wide, if I was out looking for the top rock to go on my brilliant chamber, the one they got would have been my very last choice.
A nice relaxing visit creamed off with the mini equine.
