This restored long barrow sits high on a ridge above a picturesque valley in an obscure location in rural Somerset, accessed down a maze of narrow, steep roads and tracks.

The large mound covers an exceptionally long and low passage lined with small side chambers. The reconstructed facade is made of dry walling with large blocks making up the entrance, one of which features a very large ammonite fossil.

Looking down the passage to the rear chamber far beyond, the barrow does not have any lighting installed so a torch and some flashes for the camera is a must.

A closer view of the entrance and dry walled facade. The rectangular stone in the bottom left is actually a large plaque extolling the 'virtuous' victorian restoration and was placed here when work was complete.
