Mayburgh
Date Added: 30th Oct 2024
Site Type: Henge
Country: England (Cumbria)
Visited: Yes on 1st Jan 2023. My rating: Condition 3 Ambience 5 Access 4
Mayburgh submitted by wildtalents on 15th May 2024. The henge banks at Mayburgh were built up mainly using cobbles like those surrounding the one remaining megalith at the site. It's a really large structure and may have been a meeting point for many hundreds of people at a time. These days mainly sheep throng the henge. Image from spring 2023.

I tried to fly the kite here but the wind was too inconsistent to safely get the camera high enough. Here instead of a kite I used a carp fishing pole, with a camera attachment on the end to lift my camera higher (6-7 metres).

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.

Log Text: I have loved checking this site out over the years. Recently, thinking about water made me wonder if it was a sacred site arrived at by boat and now I've been pondering stone circles as places where bodies were left to be eaten by scavengers I want to go back and see how that fits. Don't forget the bit by the pub too!

Visited: Would like to visit
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...

Gaul Cross S submitted by golux on 23rd Dec 2014. A hoard of Pictish silver was found at this site in 1830 and a second hoard of Pictish silver and Roman coins was discovered here in 2013.
A BBC news report of 22nd December 2014 revealed that a silver hoard was discovered in March 2013 by detectorist Alistair "The Magnet" MacPherson, at Gaulcross in Aberdeenshire.
