Never heard of these, but just read up on them. They’re dated to the Neolithic or Early Bronze Age (about 3000-1500 BC) … that’s the same time the pyramids were being built. Thanks for sharing :+1:

https://www.megalithic.co.uk/index.php is a good resource for ancient megaliths, circles, etc. Looking at the map for around where I live, I couldn’t believe just how many there are.

Would be a good add to Dronescene :wink:

Its incredible there is still so much to see after all this time. There is another settlement further along the track, and a cairn field. I should really get around to putting together the drone footage I took, although the weather was pretty grim at the time, so not the best.

Yes that is a great site, and as you say amazing how much is still about, that we just go by without realising.
