Crow Hill

Ancient Village / Settlement / Misc. Earthwork

formicaant May 19, 2007

This is just around the corner, north-west, from the Valley of Stones. It is a hillside valley with what look like square celtic / Iron age type fields. Cutting through the field boundaries, down the centre of the valley is a well defined trackway. This looks to me as if it leads to and from an enclosure marked on O.S. maps and Magic.
