I’m making great progress on my latest #painting: a hand painted #map of the main #megalithic sites in #Oxfordshire.

I have literally no idea why I didn’t paint this yeeeears ago.

Lanyon Quoit in Cornwall, dating back to 3500-2500 BC, predates the pyramids. Once tall enough for a horse and rider to pass under, its capstone weighs over 13 tonnes. Originally atop four stones, it fell in 1815 and was re-erected at a lower height. Its purpose remains debated, from burial chamber to ritual site.

Here is the Stannon Stone Circle, nestled between streams on Dinnever Hill, 2.5 miles from Camelford. This ancient Cornish ring features 47 upright stones and dates back to the late Neolithic or early Bronze Age. Despite the nearby china clay works, its isolation adds to its charm. 🌿🗿 #Cornwall #History #AncientSites #ancientstonebothering #stonecircle #stannonstonecircle
