Na Clachan Bhreige submitted by LivingRocks on 27th Jul 2005. Telephoto shot in torrential rain of the three remaining stones of Na Clachan Bhreige. Close access to the stones was blocked by a flooded stream which feeds a small dam close to the site.

Log Text: Didn't have a boat or deep waders so was defeated by the lake/river and not enough time or energy to take the long route upstream.

Gunnerkeld submitted by stu on 20th Jul 2002. 568178 NE Lakes Sheet.
Right next to the M6 southbound carriageway. Ruined double ring, the noise from the motorway takes nothing away from this site. Ask at the farm.

Gray Hill circle

Gray Hill circle submitted by sem on 6th May 2013. Vandalism!
The idiot who sprayed this hand-print probably thought he was being very clever and somehow "enhancing" the work of his ancestors. The sane and sensible among us will view it for what it is, graffiti.
This has been reported to the relevant archaeo trust. Unfortunately I doubt the culprit will be found..... unless anyone knows of someone bragging on a social network site????

Meal-da-Bheinn submitted by BolshieBoris on 27th Jun 2007. Meal-da-Bheinn - This was as close as I could get - according to the OS Map the circle should be on the sunlit bit of the hillside, but it was not accessible from the road without wading equipment. Very boggy ground and 2 deep streams in the way.

Grassington B submitted by stu on 11th Oct 2003. SE025 667. Grassington B is a lot more disturbed than Grassington A. With the amount of old workings on the moor it's surprising they've survived.

Bradup circle submitted by andy_h on 4th May 2004. Visited here to investigate reports that the circle had been destroyed and yup, it's gone! A sad cluster of rocks heaved out and dumped near the style still bear JCB marks and the field in which the circle stood has been stripped down to the soil and is now grassed over.
This was a listed, protected monument and I'm sure the landowner can be prosecuted if the destruction was carried out without permission.
Local folklore also tells that a number of stones were taken from the circle to bui...
