A short description of Alastair’s visit to the site, and one photo.

An excellent aerial photo of Moel Drygarn, clearly showing the Iron Age ramparts, and the three huge Bronze Age cairns that stand within them. For some reason the stone of the ramparts and the cairns looks a bit pink.

One of the Web sites relating to a collaboration between the Universities of Leicester, Newport and Southampton. This page links to interim reports on the 2001 and 2002 seasons, including the excavation of Falkner’s Circle.

Another page from this site, focussing mainly on Coetan Arthur. The page contains a selection of photographs, and the important nugget of information that the car park costs £1.50 for the day [visited April 2003, and it’s now £2].

A page about St David’s Head (Penmaen Dewi) including an aerial photograph, and quite a bit of blurb about the prehistoric sites on the peninsular.

An excellent little Quick Time VR panorama of Coetan Arthur, and the views from it.

Just a photo of the stones I’m afraid, and nothing else. The Web site (by a gentleman called David Renwick Grant) is interesting though, and worth taking a look at.

A page about the stone circle, and the sites around it. It includes photographs of the circle, the standing stone, and the cairn kerb as well as good directions on how to get to the sites.

Another page from this excellent Web site by Graham and Angela Tickner.

An aerial photograph of St David’s Head. From this page you can overlay the Ordnance Survey map by clicking on the Overlay Map link on the left hand side of the screen (this is a slow process though).

A page about standing stones on the Gower, including a small seletion of thumbnails linking to higher resolution images. It’s a bit Janet and John, but serves as a good introduction to the area.

A photo and a relatively lengthy description of Maen Ceti.

A nice page about the cairn at Parc Le Breos, including a selection of photographs and a brief summary of the site.

This photo clearly shows the hillfort, and to the east of the fort (about 3.5cm) is the standing stone, discernable as a small pale white dot. The stone is nearer the field boundary (marked by a white track) than the fort itself.

A detailed report from those University of Oxford bods, about excavations that took place at Uffington Castle in 1995. The page contains diagrams of the area, includinga plan of the fort.

The report also describes both a Neolithic long mound and the early Bronze Age barrow near the fort.

Detailed reports by Chris Gosden and Gary Lock about excavations that took place in 1996/7. The page includes diagrams of the fort.

This page contains a photo taken from Dunkery Beacon looking towards the coast. If you follow the Next Photo link there’s a photo of the beacon itself with a cairn in shot. I’m not certain whether this is one of the Bronze Age cairns or a later addition.

An excellent page about Cholesbury Camp, including a detailed description of the site, details about access, a drawing of the defenses and a plan of the site.

A brief description of how to get to Cnoc Ceann a’Gharraidh (aka Callanish II) and some photos. I like this site. It’s consistent!

This page contains directions to the site, a description of the site itself and a couple of low resolution photos.

This page contains a photo of the stone, a short description and directions. It also links to a high resolution version of the photo.

This page contains a photo of Bodowyr with the iron fence digitally removed, giving the site a very different appearance. It also has a description of Bodowyr and links to more photos and two panoramas (Real VR which you’ll need a plug-in or Java).

Another page from this excellent little Web site. As usual, a selection of good photos (taken in sunny weather!?) and directions to the Eglwys Gwyddelod.

This page has a QVTR panorama of the site on, so you can get a good idea of the lie of the land around Eglwys Gwyddelod. The track was in a much worse state when we visited than it is in the panorama!

This is a site by a dowser, about dowsing. Although I’m a bit sceptical about the author’s findings (from a purely personal point of view) the page contains some good photos and a plan of the site.

The page is rather large, so expect a slow download if you’re using a modem.

A Web site belonging to Charles Tait who I’m assuming is a professional photographer. This page has a good photo of the Watchstone on it, and if you’re in a mood for browsing there are a few other photos worth looking at on the same site.

Another page from this great Web site, with some excellent old photographs of the Stennes stones.

This Web page is largely about the castle, but it includes photos of the cave, and the passage leading to it. Don’t be alarmed if you find that some images on this page are obscured by text. The page isn’t very well glued together!

This page gives the times of opening and cost of entry for the Alexander Keiller Museum, Barn gallery and National Trust shop. It also has other information about access to the site and contact details for the local NT.

An article about the long running survey of Prehistoric Funerary & Ritual Monuments in Wales, being carried out by CPAT on behalf of Cadw. The page includes photos of Gop Cairn and Moel Ty-Uchaf stone circle.

An idiot’s guide to the Iron Age in the context of Hertfordshire, this page contains a small black and white aerial photo of the Aubreys.

An idiot’s guide to the Neolithic period in the context of Hertfordshire, this page contains a tiny photo of the Therfield Heath long barrow.

Including a good description of the Trinovantes and Catuvellauni tribes.

A page describing Devil’s Dyke, including a photograph and a link to a good plan of the site.

Aerial photo of Tre’r Ceiri

This is a neat little page about the cairn, with some photos and a description. The Web site also contains an interactive map of prehistoric sites in the Kilmartin area.

This site uses frames, so the link above is a bit of a cheat to get you to the relevant page. If you want to see the site with frames, follow this link.

Another page from this refreshingly simple Web site. It contains some photos and a short description of Kemp Howe and the Goggleby Stone.

This page contains a photo and a description of the cairn, and it links to more pages containing loads more photos and interactive panoramas of the site. The panoramas are really good fun!

The walk to this site from the road is only a quarter of a mile, so it’s not exactly an arduous pilgrimage. This page directions to the cairn (first by car, then on foot), a description of the site and lots of photos.

The Sea Henge timbers are in storage at Flag Fen. I’ve posted my photos of them to the Sea Henge section of the site.

Another good page from the ADAS Web site, outlining the known history of the site.

This link will take you to the original location of the cairn before its reconstruction.

Another page from this excellent site. This page is packed with information, and includes a sketch of how the site may have looked when it was in use.

As well as this introductory page about the Knap of Howar, this site contains a three page article (nothing too heavy going) and some rather good photos. It also has a page on how to get to Papay.

Once you’ve scrolled past a lot of horrible sponsored listings, this page has some good background information about Maeshowe, and (best of all) an interesting engraving of the tomb with no ‘lid’ on it as seen in 1861.

Another page from this local Web site, this time about the ‘Hirnant Kerb Circle’ including a brief description of the circle and a photo.

A pretty little page about the Unstan cairn, including background information, a simple plan of the tomb, and links to high resolution photos of the tomb (including one photo of an engraving on the interior which I don’t recall seeing when we visited).

A panorama of Castlerigg brought to you by the venerable BBC (powered by Java, so no plug-in necessary).

This is an old Web site (superseded by something a lot more ugly and jumbled), but it’s still worth visiting. The pages on Castlerigg include some aerial photos of the circle.

This page on Kemp Howe contains links to some photos of the circle, including an interesting aerial shot that gives a good idea of how the circle has been buried by the railway.
