Broomrigg A submitted by rich32 on 22nd Jul 2004. Broomrigg A, Cumbria (NY548467)
The Broomrigg sites are set in a pine plantation and are near to a track This image shows part of Broomrigg ‘A’, it was quite difficult to get more in the shot due to the trees. I also found Broomrigg ‘B’, but gave up on ‘C’ & ‘D’ due to eating too many flies (protein or no protein not nice) and a dodgy GPS signal.

Broomend Of Crichie Stone Circle / Henge submitted by golux on 8th Jan 2012. View looking S across the henge to stone A in the middle distance; the ditch running horizontally across the middle of the picture is the disproportionally large boundary ditch of the henge. This ditch has breaks on the S and N sides where the "avenue" passes through (the N break is partly visible above the rightmost stone) and was originally surrounded and screened from view by a high narrow outer bank. According to Bradley (2006), the entire earthwork was unstable and that the bank collapsed ...

Broomend of Crichie Avenue submitted by golux on 13th Jan 2012. Once there were two stone circles here, joined to one another by an avenue of paired monoliths. Of this double row or "avenue" of maybe 80 stones, only 4 survive.
According to Maitland and other authorities a double line of stones about 18m apart extended from a point 450 yards south of the circle, where a number of cist burials were discovered, up to the circle and then on to a second circle (Broomend of Crichie North circle), an overall length of about 500 yards.
