Tumuli, forts and finds

[hitch_1980]

Hiya

 

Does anyone know where they are any tumuli in sheffield. I have heard about the ones at lodge moore, but cant find there locations. Im trying to compile a map of tumuli, forts, and finds etc, in and around sheffield and the peaks, and because of all the occupation, using an OS Map is pants for sheffield So any helps is appreciated.

There is a Norman mott and bailey mound at High Bradfield if that is any good? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_Bradfield

There's two Iron Age forts in Sheffield so probably tumuli as well although many of these will be lost amongst urbanisation. I don't know of any other city in the UK with two hill forts, Sheffield has Wincobank and Carl Wark, which is just within the Sheffield city boundary.

 

There's also a cup and ring stone in Ecclesall Woods which I've looked for, but never actually found.

There was also a small hill-fort in the Shirecliffe area - in Roe wood I think.

Hello. Not overly intrested in anything norman / medieval. Ive already marked the wincobank site and cark walk. People think that the wincobank site may relate to the brigantes tribe, and carl walk, maybe broze / iron age, but no one really knows as there isnt much evidence. When you look at everything on a topography map, Cark walk seems to link in mam tor, and chapel en le frith. Wincobank on the other hand doesnt. Which is why I need some more evidence
