I did not fully appreciate how many different henges, tombs and structures there were in the area. I wish we knew more about that period of our history. I've always believed there was magic on the British Isles prior to the arrival of the Romans and Christianity. Wow, how fascinating.

Stonehenge was also calling me. I now realise that I should have paid more attention to Avebury - the stones are calling me back!

I remember once meeting an under experienced and under dressed man on the far Eastern fells with a hard back book on the subject ( as a map I hasten to add) looking for one to the east of Ullswater. I also came a cross a mini stone circle at Kinniside. Stone circles are fascinating and found in the most obscure places.
