Black Howes (Barrow / Cairn Cemetery)

If anyone is up at Black Howes in the coming months, please note that heather burning has rendered the main mound truly black (and howe), along with half of the second mound. The structures are, as a result, much clearer than I've seen them before, and more kerbstones are evident. Interesting stones are also newly in view on the small burnt-off area south and west of the Howes.
Scraping around North Yorks/Cleveland, looking at coast and moorland bits for about 40 years on and mostly off.
