Image of Stony Littleton (Long Barrow) by Kammer

Taken June 21st 2003: The far end of the chamber, with William (just over a metre in height) for scale. Note the metal bars holding the ceiling up.

Lou speculated that the narrow part of the passage in the foreground might be interpreted as the cervix of the reclining mother figure (if that’s what the barrow represents). That would put William squarely back in the womb!
