In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 14 January 2009

A possible prehistoric burial ground, potentially dating to the Neolithic or Bronze Age, indicated by the presence of grave markers and radial stone enclosure features. Its local association with child burials adds cultural significance, though its exact type and period remain undetermined.
