Circular monument crop-marks west of Sheffield

This one might be of interest of MegaDread. I was going over the ground we went walking over the moors at Ash Cabin Flat, checking the aerial views of where we went (at Ash Cabin, there are 2 other 'ring-cairn' structures where we looked), and found this curious ringwork:



It doesn't appear to be logged in the archaeo-surveys and can be found at SK 255 891, here: http://getamap.ordnancesurvey.co.uk/getamap/frames.htm?mapAction=gaz&gazName=g&gazString=SK255891 - just above Crawshaw Farm. 'Crawshaw' has one of 2 meanings: one relating to crows, the other relating to a settlement.

I doubt there's owt left to see at ground level, but y' never know. There's more stuff further up the track to Ughill.

Well spotted mate.
Can't say i've walked that area and as you say probably nowt on the ground anyway.
One for a summer walk i'd say.

There's a couple of other remains not far north of here that stand out on aerial view. One's quite distinct & looks like a burial. Needs checking over. Once the clocks change again in abaat 8 weeks, we're gonna have a venture down your way to have a look round for a coupla days. It'd be good to meet up again if you're up for it? I really wanna look round the New Hagg standing stone region again. Got some references for a coupla holy wells nearby which I wouldn't mind scouting for aswell.
