Urswick Stone Walls
Date Added: 29th Dec 2024
Site Type: Ancient Village or Settlement
Country: England (Cumbria)
Visited: Yes on 29th Dec 2024. My rating: Condition 2 Ambience 3 Access 3
Urswick Stone Walls submitted by Alphasmam on 18th May 2014. This enclosure is also known locally as Little Urswick Crags or Dimple Holes. The approach to the settlement enclosure is quite steep but very near to the road but over 3 almost vertical stiles. The field where the enclosure walls are found is covered with little bumps and hollows. I expect this is where the Dimple Holes name comes from. It is very idyllic and pastoral. There is a feeling of being enclosed by substantial dry stone walls and woodland.

Grasmere Cup-Marked Rocks
Date Added: 30th Dec 2024
Site Type: Rock Art
Country: England (Cumbria)
Visited: Yes on 30th Dec 2024. My rating: Condition 3 Ambience 4 Access 5
Grasmere Cup-Marked Rocks submitted by Anne T on 2nd Jun 2014. Photograph taken along the top of the outcrop, looking back towards the car park pay machines, showing groupings of cup marks. Doubtless there are other sets of marks, but there was much grass and mossy growth at this time of year. Well worth a visit, being so close to the car park and the centre of Grasmere itself.

Mayburgh
Date Added: 30th Dec 2024
Site Type: Henge
Country: England (Cumbria)
Visited: Yes on 30th Dec 2024. My rating: Condition 3 Ambience 5 Access 4
Mayburgh submitted by wildtalents on 15th May 2024. The henge banks at Mayburgh were built up mainly using cobbles like those surrounding the one remaining megalith at the site. It's a really large structure and may have been a meeting point for many hundreds of people at a time. These days mainly sheep throng the henge. Image from spring 2023.

King Arthur's Round Table submitted by h_fenton on 1st Oct 2010. King Arthur's Round Table.
I tried to fly the kite here but the wind was too inconsistent to safely get the camera high enough. Here instead of a kite I used a carp fishing pole, with a camera attachment on the end to lift my camera higher (6-7 metres).

Log Text: Think I found my first cist here, and a wonderful ring cairn to accompany it. The whole area is seemingly littered with man made structures, but as a novice I probably have an eager confirmation bias.

Bewcastle Cross submitted by nicoladidsbury on 20th Sep 2004. Bewcastle Cross, Cumbria
Image shows the detail from the north and east sides of the 15m cross. These sides are very well preserved.
The north side is divided into five compartments. In the highest and lowest are vines running in graceful curves and bearing foliage and fruit. "In the second and fourth divisions are two curiously-devised and intricately-twisted knots." The third division is filled with the chequer work. Between the compartments are lines of Runes which are now so indi...
