Whitehawk submitted by Andy B on 3rd Jul 2024. On 14th May 2024 I visited the Neolithic Cannibals art installation and exhibition in Brighton created by sound artist Simon James and pupils from local schools up on the estate at Whitehawk. Simon explains: Lots of people ask why we called it Neolithic Cannibals. I discovered some historical 'othering' in the language used by an archaeologist to describe the Neolithic community on Whitehawk Hill, which reminded me how some of the students in less well off areas of Brighton get looked down on. A...

Site Type: Stone Circle

Visited: Would like to visit
Candy submitted by golux on 20th Mar 2011. Recorded in 1902 as being the sole survivor of a stone circle. The line of trees behind mark the boundary of the garden in which it stands, planted in 1978 by the owner (and builder) of the house, as he informed me.
I would imagine that the name "Candy", the name of the farm around here, is derived from the same root as Knockandy Hill behind it. (:Cnoc" is gaelic for hill.)

Cairn Ennit submitted by Klingon on 21st Nov 2005. It isn't clear if this is "Cairn Ennit" or "Whitehill Wood".
I hate barbed wire! There were three fences successively within one meter.

Yonder Bognie Warden submitted by cosmic on 22nd Mar 2004. Yonder_Bognie at NJ601458 in Aberdeenshire is rated by Burl as a Class 3 Circle but I felt it deserves more due to its impressive recumbent.
The recumbent at about nine feet long by five feet high is almost flat on top and is one of the most impressive I've seen. The circle especially to the west side seems to have some rogue stones dumped into it - there is a profusion of stones around the perimeter of the neighbouring fields!
The owner lives at Kirkland Farm and seemed happy for me to vi...

St Drostan's Well submitted by KiwiBetsy on 13th Sep 2006. Heading east on the B9031 take a left turn (toward the sea) just before New Aberdour. The road passes Old Aberdour Church before ending in a carpark at the shingle beach. The well is just to the east of the carpark at the base of a hill.
St Drostan used the water of this spring to baptise local people and was famed for his miracle cures. St Drostan died at Glenesk in 809AD. His remains were conveyed from Glenesk to Aberdour where they were placed in a stone coffin and long believed to w...
