Church of Saint Stephen at Tockholes

A modern church on the site of several older churches. Historically dating back as far as the medieval period.

The Quernmore Burial

In 1973 during the construction of a car park a 7th Century burial of unusual type was brought to light by a mechanical excavator.

Standing Stones Hill

Standing Stones Hill in the Anglezarke area is a bit of a mystery, given its absence of standing stones or viable historic reference to ever having standing stones at all.

Pikestones Chambered Long Cairn

Once a large burial mound, Pikestones was excavated down to ground level in the past, which is now regarded as an overly enthusiastic effort. If more of the barrow had been left intact it could have been analysed using modern technology.

Jepsons Gate Cairn

The badly named Jepson’s Gate Cairn is actually located along the edge of a slight ridge, possibly the route of a very old track, to the Northeast of the better-known Pikestones.

Black Coppice Chambered Cairn

A supposed chambered cairn of 'unusual construction' above the quarry on Stronstrey Bank.

Dog Holes Cave

Dog Holes Cave is a small pothole in the karst landscape of Warton Crag, with interesting geology and perhaps archaeology.

Warton Crag Multivallate Hillfort

Iron Age small multivallate hillfort containing remains of stone huts located on the summit of Warton Crag.
