Castle Crag is the small pointed hill in the center of the valley.

Site Type: Hillfort
Country: England (Derbyshire)
Visited: Yes on 5th Jul 2005
Castle Ring (Derbyshire) submitted by nicoladidsbury on 5th Jul 2005. View up to Castle Ring Hillfort from the Limestone Way path near Youlgreave. Its possible to make out the turf banks, topped with a drystone wall. The hill is very steep sided, giving a very well defended site. The Limestone Way path continues up the side of the hill underneath Castle Ring, although there is no access to the fort as it is on private land.

Castlerigg submitted by nicoladidsbury on 5th Jan 2005. Castlerigg Stone Circle, near Keswick, Cumbria
This photo was taken on New Year's Eve. Remarkable sunlight filtered through wispy low cloud, lighting the stones, and Blencathra beyond. I liked the way the stones are reflected in the pool of water, giving a slightly different twist to the view I love so much!

Castlerigg W submitted by nicoladidsbury on 11th Mar 2007. This is the outlier stone of Castlerigg stone circle... Or is it a remaining stone of Castlerigg West..
We found another standing stone in the stone wall nearby making me believe that this stone belongs to another circle

Clifton Stones submitted by nicoladidsbury on 31st Mar 2007. Clifton standing stones.
A beautiful pair of stones, near to the villiage of Clifton. Access is quite easy, the path from the farm has been improved. A circular walk is possible from Clifton, taking the footpath via Clifton Hall, where you can visit a well preserved Peel Tower, which has been resorted but apprears to have kept many of its original timbers.

OS NY 4959 2160
We approached Moor Divock on bike, setting off from Askham, via Whale, Helton and Heltonhead, so I was a little bit tired....

Moor Divock is an exciting place, to the north t...

Cratcliff Rocks submitted by nicoladidsbury on 6th Apr 2004. Cratcliff Rocks Defended Settlement.
This photo was taken from Nine Stones Close. The setting sun lit the rocks with a spectactular red light. The settlement is a jumble of rocks, but man made walls can clearly still be seen. When I visited the site, I didn't realise it was a settlement, it is not marked as such on the OS map. I need to go back! Grid Ref:SK227623
