  1. I got to The Rollright Stones today. It's a bit of a journey, but is always a good visit.

    Today was made difficult by the wind blowing out incense and the candle, but with perseverance things got done.

  2. Another little play about with CapCut and some Stonehenge photos from various solstices and equinoxes (equinoxi? 😅) between 2022-25.

    Set to music: Stonehenge by The Poison Girls (of course!)

    Hope you like it 😊

  3. It's off the land of recumbent stone circles for today's #StandingStoneSunday

    Druidstone stone circle on the west side of Bennachie in Aberdeenshire.

  4. A trip from what seems a lifetime ago to North Strone recumbent stone circle near Alford in Aberdeenshire for today's #StandingStoneSunday

    Unusual circle. All the stones are small for a RSC. The colours are lovely. The stones are dark pink aplite.

    Nice view from here of Aberdeenshire and my favourite hill Bennachie.

    For all things recumbent, this magic gazetteer "Great Crowns Stone " is well worth a look.

  6. A nice visit from back in May 2012 to Ardlair recumbent stone circle in Aberdeenshire for today's #StandingStoneSunday

    There's a great view from this one of the surrounding hills. Knockandy Hill to the north, Tap o' Noth west and the Correen Hills south. To the east is the RSC wonderland of Dunnideer and Bennachie.

  7. A sunny visit to Frendraught stone circle in Aberdeenshire from back in 2013 for #StandingStoneSunday

    The recumbent stone is sadly broken and flankers fallen.

  8. Start of a new month and so far this morning the February weather is as rubbish as January's was. I thought I'd toot a photo from when it didn't rain in sunny Aberdeenshire. The wonderfully situated Corrstone Wood recumbent stone circle from a lovely visit 13 years back for #StandingStoneSunday

  9. Ancient rocks get their annual five minutes of fame for aligning with the sun, while humans pretend they're not just overgrown lawn ornaments 🌞🪨. BBC manages to turn this solar salute into a global #news #event, as if the sun won't rise again tomorrow 😂.

  10. The main stone circle at Temple Wood, one of many amazing prehistoric monuments in Kilmartin Glen in Argyll. The site was developed in a series of stages between 5,000 years ago and 3,300 years ago. More pics and info: undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/kil

  11. The Lochbuie Stone Circle stands in the shadow of beautiful Ben Buie.
    The only stone circle on the Isle of Mull, it originally comprised nine granite stones. Eight remain standing today, while the ninth has been replaced by a low boulder to mark its original position.
    Getting to the circle involves navigating a narrow, twisty road then following a vague and boggy path across moorland and sheep pasture.

  16. A few pictures from my visit to Mitchells Fold stone circle on Friday.

    The altar is a bit multicoloured, but the lesson I take from that is that an offering doesn't have to be perfect, it just has to be made. And that, in itself, is perfect.

  25. Monmouthshire's only stone circle for today's #StandingStoneSunday

    Gray Hill circle is probably the remains of a cairn circle or kerbed cairn. There are two tall standing stone outliers heading uphill. The site has great views down to the Hafren/Severn.

    This visit June 2012.

  26. #TheHurlers #StoneCircle #BodminMoor #Cornwall A triple circle from the late #Neolithic or early #BronzeAge Legend says that the stones are petrified #Hurling players struck down for having a bit of fun on a Sunday because #god can't abide that type of thing.

  27. Blakeley Raise Stone Circle

    "On the surface of it a fairly typical Cumbrian Bronze Age stone circle but the story of the circle and even the stones themselves is rather murky.

    Sometime in the 18th century a local farmer is said to have dismantled some or all of a stone circle on land owned by 'Standing Stones' farm and reused them as gateposts. The farm is shown on both old and modern maps as standing just over a mile (1km) almost due south.

    The current stone circle was 'restored' in 1925 by a Dr Quine with the stones being set in concrete - how accurate the reconstruction was is not known"
