Sancreed Well submitted by AngieLake on 10th Jan 2006. Here's the May Tree in full blossom covered in clouties and in the foreground, between the ferns, is the mouth of the holy well. May is definitely the month to visit!

Merry Maidens (Circle)
Date Added: 26th Sep 2010
Site Type: Stone Circle
Country: England (Cornwall)
Visited: Yes on 6th Jan 2006
Merry Maidens (Circle) submitted by AngieLake on 6th Jan 2006. This arc of the Merry Maidens is bathed in light from the setting sun on May 25th 2005. The nearest stone to the camera was approximately at the ESE of the circle, and such an unusual shape compared to the other more rectangular ones that I christened it the 'Goddess Stone', as it has the curvy shape of a female torso and was the focus of the final part of my ritual movement dowsing exercise. (The first part of the movement addressed 290 degs - sunward - on a short looping walk out of the circle...

Avebury
Date Added: 26th Sep 2010
Site Type: Stone Circle
Country: England (Wiltshire)
Visited: Yes on 6th Jan 2006
Avebury submitted by AngieLake on 6th Jan 2006. This stone is near the ENE henge banks at Avebury. Though it's in the segment where the Cove stands, it is one of the furthest from that feature.
As it was hot and sunny the day after Summer Solstice I made the effort to walk right around the banks barefoot and saw parts of Avebury that I didn't know existed.

Giants Grave, Kirksanton submitted by AngieLake on 18th Nov 2005. I wonder if this is what Jack is referring to as the cup-mark on the eastern stone at Kirksanton? (See the large circular mark about 1/3 of the way up the near stone).

Legend has it this well has never run dry, and was a cure for eye problems.

Country: Scotland (Argyll)
Visited: Yes on 12th Nov 2005
Temple Wood S submitted by AngieLake on 12th Nov 2005. Temple Wood on a sunny day in 2002. The central cist below, and all the stone arrangements immediately around it looked too neat, somehow. Just part of an amazing area of megalithic sites running SSW/NNE through the Kilmartin Glen in Argyll.

Trecastle Mountain ENE
Date Added: 26th Sep 2010
Site Type: Stone Circle
Country: Wales (Powys)
Visited: Yes on 6th Nov 2005
Trecastle Mountain ENE submitted by AngieLake on 6th Nov 2005. This stone is the same one featured on this site page by SEM, when he explains how nearby stones seem to form an avenue leading to the main circle at Y Pigwn. Dowsing, when SEM showed me the area at the end of July, confirmed this. This stone (seen here looking across the NW avenue route towards NE) actually dowsed as the left-hand one of a pair of huge portals at the beginning of flatter ground on which the circle stands. The other huge stone used to stand near the tussock of grass above it i...

Grey Mare and her Colts submitted by AngieLake on 6th Nov 2005. The fallen stone of the facade of Grey Mare and Her Colts, with field gate not too far away for escape route when the cows come running, as they did when I visited! In the distance there are several hillforts. I managed a visit to one - Eggardon - later that day in May.

Knowlton Rings submitted by AngieLake on 6th Nov 2005. This area of the henge seemed very mystical, probably an original entrance between the two yew trees when the church was in use?

Country: England (Devon)

Corringdon Ball Tomb submitted by AngieLake on 6th Nov 2005. Corringdon Ball long barrow looking approximately NE - East. In the far right of the pic are the two pillars of Ball Gate (as marked on the OS map). A footpath runs NW-SE down that lane, around the curve of Corringdon Ball hill. If you trace a line NW from South Brent on the OS map, you will find it.

Site Type: Ancient Village or Settlement
Country: England (Devon)
Visited: Yes on 5th Nov 2005
Grimspound submitted by AngieLake on 5th Nov 2005. A confused time-traveller fumbles out through the huge portalled gateway of Grimspound settlement on Dartmoor. Will he be swallowed by the mist before he reaches his machine!?? (Will Angie get rapped on the knuckles for posting another gateway picture??) This inside-outside view (the lower pic is looking uphill towards Hameldown Tor - 529m at SE - from inside the protecting walls), gives an idea of the scale of it. Behind our intrepid hero (a 6ft human being from the 21st century, by the na...

Hambledon Hill hillfort submitted by AngieLake on 12th Oct 2005. A composite picture of Hambledon Hill, taken from the SE of the hillfort.
(Excuse the difference in tone!)
Sadly, I didn't have time to explore and cattle were roaming freely in its central area, but it was thrilling to see the well-preserved ramparts.
