These
areas are chocker with Barrows and stone circles and
things. On one trip, after spending the night at the
Rollright Stones, we drove down to the Humphrey
Littleton Long barrow, encountering shed loads of
Barrows on the way, that were in all states of repair.
It got
to the stage where, reluctant both to stop at yet
another barrow, we would all casually start looking in
the opposite direction as we drove past a sign
indicating the next fine specimen awaiting our
attention. We would then, having passed by a safe
distance, look at the map and express both surprise
and regret, having missed a long barrow that obviously
could not have been sign posted too well, or we would
have stopped to take a look at it.
