St Piran's Cross
Date Added: 26th Sep 2010
Site Type: Ancient Cross
Country: England (Cornwall)
Visited: Yes on 19th Jul 2005
St Piran's Cross submitted by AngieLake on 19th Jul 2005. Not the easiest cross to find, but well-worth it. I believe I read that this is the only three-holed cross in Cornwall, but it looks to me as if it just wasn't finished. This close-up was taken in June 2005, one sunny evening. Harder to find was nearby St Piran's Lost Oratory, now buried and marked with a slab of granite. From this cross, head towards the huge modern cross on the sand-dunes. The sprawling campsite at Perranporth spoils the views here.

St. Brannoc's Holy Well (Braunton)
Date Added: 26th Sep 2010
Site Type: Holy Well or Sacred Spring
Country: England (Devon)
Visited: Yes on 23rd Mar 2005
St. Brannoc's Holy Well (Braunton) submitted by AngieLake on 23rd Mar 2005. St.Brannoc's Holy Well in Braunton, north Devon, is formed by a spring that runs into an almost heart-shaped pool. Nearby is a modern chapel built on the site of a medieval chapel, and probably an even older one preceded that.

Stanton Drew Great Circle
Date Added: 26th Sep 2010
Site Type: Stone Circle
Country: England (Somerset)
Visited: Yes on 12th Nov 2004
Stanton Drew Great Circle submitted by AngieLake on 12th Nov 2004. One for Templar - panting sheep, sweating buckets in the May heat, in the shade of a stone of the main avenue. (Two days later, they'd been shorn!) For Liz's info, there was a small iron framework structure in the field, not far from the main entrance gate, that I'd not previously noticed, and a group of people were standing inside it, observing ....maybe afraid of the cows too?

Site Type: Holy Well or Sacred Spring
Country: England (Devon)
Visited: Yes on 31st May 2010
Stidwell submitted by AngieLake on 31st May 2010. The area on the west side of the wall that runs downhill from Buckland Beacon. Stidwell spring is just over the wall here.
You can see how steep the track is. It didn't appear easy to access the well from the east.
[iirc there was also barbed wire running along the wall.]

Sueno's Stone
Date Added: 26th Sep 2010
Site Type: Class III Pictish Cross Slab
Country: Scotland (Moray)
Visited: Yes on 2nd Nov 2004
Sueno's Stone submitted by AngieLake on 2nd Nov 2004. Defenders preparing for a footie penalty shot?! ... These amusing little figures can be seen on the huge Pictish 'Sueno stone', sheltered inside its glass case at Forres. A shame that the glass reflected the light. Taken 5th July 2001.
This Class III stone is one of the finest examples of Dark Age sculptures in Europe. It has been suggested that the enormous and intricate carving shows the coronation of Kenneth Mac Alpin. If so, it would have been erected in the 9th century to inform the P...

Swinside submitted by AngieLake on 2nd Nov 2004. Swinside in south Cumbria, not far from Millom. One of the most beautiful circles in England, I think. Another panorama made from two photos, cobbled together.
The expert on this circle is Jack Morris-Eyton, or JackME, now a member of Meg.Portal.

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.

Site Type: Cairn
Country: England (Devon)
Visited: Yes on 21st Nov 2008
The Giant's Grave Mardon Down submitted by AngieLake on 21st Nov 2008. Believe it or not, this bumpy mass of vegetation, left, is the Giant's Grave. You can see how the [rather wet!] ridgeway track skirts around it on the highest part of Mardon Down.
Looking approx south here, with the other smaller cairn just behind it to the south.
