Volunteer Enid has been busy researching a couple of sites with good comparisons to our round barrow at Thirlestane (see main image and below).
As outlined in our Documentary Research blog, volunteers were offered this as an opportunity to get involved in another area of archaeological work, assisting in the initial investigation and research, post-dig.
Here are PDF copies of Enid’s research information related to the round barrow (Trench 5) at Thirlestane, to be used by the GUARD archaeologists below, starting with ‘our’ barrow:
