    Hiking

    Belas Knap is an example of a Neolithic long barrow, with a false entrance and side chambers. Excavated in 1863 and 1865, the remains of 31 people were found in the chambers. The English Heritage owned site is free to enter.

    Hiking

    English Heritage site. The way how the burial chambers were restored certainly does not resemble the original but you get a good idea what the place may once have looked like.

    Hiking

    I have parked in the public car park just beyond the Cleeve Hill golf club car park and walked in a big loop around Cleeve Hill to Belas Knap and back. The car park is busy with dog walkers so less of a risk I guess.
