Castle Dykes
Date Added: 14th Jun 2014
Site Type: Henge
Country: England (Yorkshire (North))
Visited: Would like to visit
Castle Dykes submitted by rich32 on 7th Jul 2004. Castle Dykes Henge, nr Aysgarth, North Yorkshire (SD98228728)
The henge has a diameter of about 75m with the ditch being up to 2m in some places. There are entrances to the north, south & east, although only the eastern one is thought to be original and of antiquity.
This henge is fairly well preserved, but as seems obligatory with our henges its covered in cow poo. This photo (looking east) does not really do the site justice.

Right next to the M6 southbound carriageway. Ruined double ring, the noise from the motorway takes nothing away from this site. Ask at the farm.

Harland Moor submitted by kelpie on 23rd Feb 2004. This circle consists of twelve edge-set boulders. It has a hollow in the centre thought to be a medieval ore-pit.
To the south lies a cairn field and a stone that I believe to be an outlier to the circle.

One of the Rollright Stones group, this extremely weathered 8' high stone is 300' away from the King's Men stone circle. It may have been connected with a destroyed Neolithic cairn.
