Great Cumbrian Circles by David on Monday, 05 December 2005

This is the only new material on stone circles since Thom (including Ruggles and Mackie). It's fascinating and it'll take me a long time to understand it. The geometric unit is entirely new, as is the work with shadows, and both hypotheses should be 'patented' urgently.

I have another stone circle for consideration - it is just over the county border and is only in the earliest stages of exploration. As it has a diameter of about 75 metres I am hoping it will eventually be classed as a Cumbrian Great Circle. (It appears to be a double-perimetered true circle and is listed on the SMR as 'Holymire stone circle'). It can't be identified on the ground, yet, but is clearly visible from the top of the railway embankment - and is well worth a visit.

Something is not right. This message is just to keep things from messing up down the road
