Gop

 The Gop has almost been cleared of trees, leaving the Neolithic burial mound clear for everyone to see
Enjoy this video of it and the village
I’m off to the Hall shortly

    What a great video! The music is perfect. I half expected to see knights on steeds galloping by.

  3. If only the mound could talk! What stories it could tell.
    Hope everything goes smoothly tonight and a good time is had by all. Wish I could be there. xx

    Oh, if only Gop and the lands around it could talk. It's clear why the Neolithic people chose that high place for an important burial (yes, we watch Time Team!). Beautiful and there is sweet Trelawnyd snuggled nearby.
    Have a gloriously fun day and evening!

    Hugs!

  5. Incredible. I didn’t appreciate how enormous it was. Nice to see that they’re preserving and researching more of it.

  7. That's impressive. So big, it really towers over the surrounding countryside. Thanks for showing us.

  8. Splendid.. without the trees you feel it can return to doing what it was built for

    Magnificent! Taking down the trees was a brave move, but now we see the Gop in all it's glory. Very impressive. History speaks aloud.
    And have a lot of fun tonight! We will all be thinking of you!

  11. We have what we call a mound here, built by the early indigenous people which looks very much like that. Well, we have quite a few but one is less than five miles from my house. They were not burial mounds though, but were built as sort of ceremonial earthwork structure. Yours are much older than ours.
