Image of Gurnard’s Head (Cliff Fort) by Rhiannon

Gurnard’s Head

Cliff Fort

From J T Blight’s ‘A week at the Land’s End’ (1876). Not looking that Gurnardy from this angle. But well worth your visit, it’s great here. Mr Blight certainly got in a lot of sketching that week.

Image of Addington Long Barrow by Rhiannon

Addington Long Barrow

Long Barrow

From John Thorpe’s ‘Custumale Roffense’ (1788). I can’t quite work it out but I think this is the long barrow and not the stones at ‘the chestnuts’. Perhaps someone who’s been will be able to tell.

Kit’s Coty

Dolmen / Quoit / Cromlech

From ‘The Pilgrims’ Way’ by Julia Cartwright, in the Art Journal, October 1891.
The sketch (which seems to have a remarkably photographic look about it, making me wonder how it was done) – includes the Lovely Railings.

Image of Stonehenge (Stone Circle) by Rhiannon

Stonehenge

Stone Circle

From volume 1 of ‘The Beauties of Wiltshire’ by John Britton, 1801. Most of the ‘beauties’ illustrated are rich people’s massive houses. But as the owners of the houses were the ones likely to buy the books, I suppose that was a prudent choice.
