Castlerigg
Evening light at Castlerigg Stone Circle, Lake District.
Castlerigg is perhaps the most atmospheric and dramatically sited of all British stone circles, with panoramic views and the mountains of Helvellyn and High Seat as a backdrop. A ring of 38 standing stones, it was probably built around 4,500 years ago, in the late Neolithic period.
