Ringstone Edge Mounds

Round Barrow(s)

daveyravey Dec 7, 2005

After a closer inspection of the monuments record I have found some of these mounds. All are concentrated in a relatively small area and one has narrowly escaped being quarried away (photos to come later, I don’t seem to be able to post them at the minute). At least one is visible on the sky line looking into the direction of the sun.

Nothing immediately visible on a highly cultivated hill top, but some slightly raised areas could be mounds. There is however a scheduled ancient monument here somewhere, according to Magic.
