Farnoge

Wedge Tomb

ryaner Sep 24, 2006

Up a steep embankment from the road and set into the side of the field, I approached this tomb from the neighbouring field as there were the usual frisky bullocks about. Confused by the barely visible layout, it wasn’t until I checked megalithomania that I discovered that this is a court tomb, and a nice one too at that.
