Description
Arguably a large Goddess face set in a vesica shaped hollow on the third capstone in. Only just noticed it this year after 20 years of coming here. Oddly the bas-relief "veins" run out to the edges of the rock, creating a classic "odal" rune form, the rune for Mother Earth.
This is on the only pink granite capstone, and visible by squatting down and looking up by the 1898 stabilizing pillar.

I think that's what keeps most of us returning to sites, no matter how many times you visit, there's usually something you've not seen before, then one day, something that's personally meaningful just leaps out at you and your connection to the site deepens.
It's as though I am pulled back to some sites...
