Plain from their Library, with the barrows &c, identified upon it. 

 Above all I have to express my indebtedness to Mrs. Cunnington, 

 whose wide knowledge of the earthworks and barrows has been 

 ungrudgingly placed at my disposal, whilst her more detailed 

 enumeration of the Long Barrows of the county will be printed as 

 an Appendix to the present List. 



It may probably be objected, especially by archaeologists who do 

 not know the county, that the List would have been infinitely more 

 valuable if the compiler had personally visited all the Barrows and 

 Earthworks, Ordnance Map in hand, and verified on the spot their 

 existence and present condition. It is perfectly true that this 

 would have greatly enhanced the value and authority of the List, 

 but to attempt to carry it out would certainly have meant that the 

 present compiler would never have printed the List at all. As it 

 is, the Barrows round Stonehenge, and the whole of the Long 

 Barrows have been personally visited by Mrs. Cunnington, and her 

 notes on them are incorporated in the following pages. 



I have only to add that I shall be very greatly obliged to anyone 

 who will send me notes of Wiltshire antiquities known to them 

 which are not here recorded.
