The Cove (Standing Stones)

The H.M.J. Underhill Archive


A magic lantern slide from the H.M.J. Underhill Archive showing the Cove as seen in the late 19th Century. On the same web site another slide shows the Cove in plan.

West Kennett Avenue (Multiple Stone Rows / Avenue)

The H.M.J. Underhill Archive


A magic lantern slide from the H.M.J. Underhill Archive showing the avenue surrounded by ploughed field in the late 19th Century.

The Longstone Cove (Standing Stones)

The H.M.J. Underhill Archive

A magic lantern slide from the H.M.J. Underhill Archive showing the Cove in the late 19th Century, firmly embedded in a building!

Glandymawr (Kerbed Cairn)

Prehistoric Stone Circles & Rows


This site is primarily about dowsing for 'energy' lines at Glandymawr Cairn Circle. Not really my bag, but the page includes three photos of the site and a plan, so it's useful for believers and sceptics alike.

The Giant's Ring (Passage Grave)

Multimap


The location of the Giant's Ring on Multimap.

Nanna's Cave (Cave / Rock Shelter)

Gathering the Jewels


A photograph of a perforated cowrie shell from Nanna's Cave (see accompanying description).

St David's Head Camp (Cliff Fort)

Gathering the Jewels


An aerial view of St David's Head Camp, the photographer skillfully omitting Coetan Arthur from the shot (was that you Toby?).

Castell Henllys (Hillfort)

Gathering the Jewels


An aerial photo of Castell Henllys taken in 1991. There's a second (undated) aerial photo on the same site.

Carn Ingli Camp (Hillfort)

Gathering the Jewels


An aerial photograph of Carn Ingli Camp from the north. There's a second photo on the same site showing the northern end of the fort in winter.

The Stone River (Natural Rock Feature)

Multimap Aerial Photo


For some reason the stones are showing up as pink in this shot, which is kind of handy. Carn Meini is evident as a mass of pink to the right of the centre of the shot. The Stone River wins its way downhill from the south west corner of this mass of stones.

Wiston Castle (Rath)

Gathering the Jewels


A useful aerial photo of Wiston Castle, hopefully illustrating my point about the possibility of a prehistoric connection.

Pentre Ifan (Dolmen / Quoit / Cromlech)

Gathering the Jewels


An aerial photo of Pentre Ifan and its environs. An unusual way of looking at such a familiar tomb. Note the earthworks - barely visible from the ground.

The same site also contains a photograph of a screen print of Pentre Ifan by Jonathan Owen.

Lia Fail (Standing Stone / Menhir)

George Eastman House Archive


An old photo identified as the Lia Tail Stone by the famous Alvin Langdon Coburn. The photo shows the stone before it was set in concrete. Is it just me, or are there two possible cupmarks in this photo?

Like most of the photos in this collection, this one isn't dated. Thanks to FourWinds for identifying the site from the photo.

Henblas (Dolmen / Quoit / Cromlech)

Megalithic Walks: Henblas


Another page from this amazing site by Graham and Angela Tickner, this time containing two photographs of the site and a short description.

Maen-y-Bardd (Dolmen / Quoit / Cromlech)

George Eastman House Archive


An old photo identified as 'Ro-Wen Cromlech' by Alvin Langdon Coburn (there's also a second photo of the site).

Like most of the photos in this collection these aren't dated. Thanks to FourWinds and Hob for identifying the site from the photo.

Penllech Coetan Arthur (Dolmen / Quoit / Cromlech)

George Eastman House Archive


An old photo identified as Cefn Amlwch Cromlech (Arthur's Quoit) by the famous Alvin Langdon Coburn. Note the absence of the fence.

Like most of the photos in this collection, this one isn't dated. Thanks to FourWinds for identifying the site from the photo.

Breastagh (Standing Stone / Menhir)

George Eastman House Archive


An old magic lantern slide of Breastagh Ogham Stone by an unknown photographer.

Like most of the photos in this collection, this one isn't dated. Thanks to FourWinds for identifying the stone from the photo.

Na Dromannan (Stone Circle)

Breasclete Community Association - Calanais Excavations


An article by Dr Colin Richards about the University of Manchester excavation of Na Dromannan in 2002 and 2003. It includes four photos of the site taken during excavataion.

Gunnerkeld (Stone Circle)

George Eastman House Archive


An old photo of 'Gunner Keld', scattered with children, taken by Alvin Langdon Coburn.

Like most of the photos in this collection, this one isn't dated, but was probably taken in the first half of the 20th Century.

I live in a small Welsh seaside town on the west coast. As well as being well placed for visiting the local sites, it's relatively easy to get to sites in south Wales, north Wales and the borders.

If you'd like to use one of the photos I've posted on this site please contact the TMA Eds who'll pass the message on ([email protected]).

Some of my favourite prehistoric sites:
Avebury (England)
Calanais (Scotland)
Castlerigg (England)
Dolgamfa (Wales)
Gavrinis (France)
Kernic (France)
Pentre Ifan (Wales)
La Roche-aux-Fées (France)
Stones of Stennes (Scotland)
Wayland's Smithy (England)
