Loughcrew Cairn T | Chambered Cairn | Ireland (Republic of) | Co. Meath | Visited | September 2018 Heard about it from very kind B&B host and made our way to it. Met really nice fellow travellers up on the Hag's Mountain from over the globe. Loved the Hag's Chair and the Cairn T, especially the petroglyphs on the Equinox Stone inside the chamber.

Holywell Bay | Holy Well or Sacred Spring | England | Cornwall | Visited | 28th Oct 2018 | 3 | We were not able to find it until we saw 'locals' heading straight to it, but by then the tide had made it inaccessible. Understandably, the locals are loathe to assist tourists, heading down in anticipation, find this place.. Things that are felt to be sacred need to be respected, but it was a sham... Read More |
