Megalithia


Nice guide to some of the megalithic sites of Britain and Ireland by a chap called Richard M.

West Kennett (Long Barrow)

English Heritage


Geophysics survey of the area around the barrow - the side ditches show up really well on the data plots.

Bull Ring (Henge)

English Heritage


Geophysical Survey of the site -
"The aim of the survey was to help gain a greater understanding of the monument and the activity that had occurred within it; to inform the future management of the site, particularly in relation to its repair and maintenance; and to attempt to reveal any trace of a former stone circle."

Article mentions the possibility of a buried stone but notes-
"The magnetic survey has unfortunately been severely affected by modern disturbance, possibly through the use of the ditch as a dumping area"

It's a shame the way it's been treated.

Bush Barrow (Round Barrow(s))

Gives a rundown of the items found at the barrow as well as photo's of one of the lozenges. Then goes into two pages of mathematical and technical info that 'proves' that it was used for all sorts of celestial and calendrical observations.
