I agree completely. To see the midwinter sun rising over Bridestones, viewed from Marton church on the A34 north of Congleton really brings it home that the solstice was a very special time of the year. I would quite happily celebrate the winter solstice instead of Christmas day. It's far more in tune to my philosophy of celebrating the natural passing of the changing seasons at face value rather than second-hand via man-made deities.
