Coldrum Longbarrow is the least-damaged megalithic long-barrow in Kent. As with most of these structures, it’s lost its original form, but the entrance is plainly visible strutting out from the mound. Tree decorating is on the rise here, a practice stemming from pagans and druids which I happen to really enjoy.
I have been lucky to spend a beautiful solstice here, where I met a group of fire spinners and we welcomed the sun with fire. We placed candles in circles on the ground, creating a beautiful atmosphere for the night, and welcomed the sun with fire breathing!
To visit, park in the car park (51°19’19.6″N 0°21’59.7″E) and follow the path to the barrow:
