rrraven said:...a hint to get building our own shelters?
This brings back memories of fallout shelters during the 50s and the fear of nuclear war and radioactive fallout. My dad acquired plans for a shelter, but one was never built. I was just a kid so was only vaguely aware of the situation and didn't really talk to him about the need for a shelter or why he never built it. This is the first I've heard of these barrow structures and it would be interesting to know if they were a type of "air raid/comet shelter".

The Chamber Barrow of Stony Littleton is one of the finest Burial Chambers in Britain. Thought to be around 5000 years old, it resides in a remote location, cut off from the hectic 21st century. Perhaps one of the most amazing locations I have had the pleasure to visit, and yet only 40 minutes from my own home.
The formation is located right next to the ancient mound. The crop remains a mystery at the moment, as its very short, but however does have a yellow flower. At first glance we thought it was Old Canola, as most of the Canola fields are losing their flowers at this stage. It is only 3ft in height with a much narrow stem than Canola.
The crop inside had an extremely neat floor pattern, with minimal breakage. More to follow.
