Castlerigg Stone Circle
There are few stone circles in Britain in such a dramatic setting as that of Castlerigg, which overlooks the Thirlmere Valley in the Lake District National Park with the mountains of High Seat and Helvellyn as a backdrop
It is not just its location that makes this one of the most important British stone circles; considered to have been constructed about 3000 bc, it is potentially one of the earliest in the country.
