Henge in Cumbria
This henge which was damaged in the 19th century when someone tried to turn it into a garden and cut in half by the road, is approximately 90m in diameter and located close to Mayburgh and the M6. A report from the 17th century records that two stones once stood outside the northern entrance (now under the road).

King Arthurs Round Table, nr Penrith, Cumbria.
A view from KART looking towards Mayburgh Henge. If you get a magnifying glass out and look just to the right of the national speed limit sign, you should be able to make out Mayburghs central stone.
Both sites are frequented by Hengecows.

The surviving entrance at King Arthur's Round Table (the other now under the road), just off the M6 near Penrith and located within a few hundred metres of Mayburgh Henge. This site is difficult to photograph on the ground but worth a visit if you are passing.
