The WaterTemple - This site is dedicated to understanding the mystery and spiritual nature of water in sacred springs and holy wells. Stone Circles in Cumbria, Derbyshire and South Wales - Stone circles and the remains of burial chambers are scattered across the British Isles. Until recently I, like most people, was unaware of just how many of these sites there are, how long ago they were constructed and the significance that they held for those who built them. It is always Maytime. Children dance with ribbons round the pole set up every year since time immemorial in this sleepy place, remote from the hurly burly of modern life.
Children happily play rounders and hopscotch in the village school's playground.
In the evening, the local team practises in the cricket nets. Girls ride their horses round the quiet, leafy lanes. With these pages, I am hoping to delve into specific sites and subjects a little more deeply and from the viewpoints of different people, like the Historian, the Archaeologist, the Folklorist and even the likes of the Ghost Hunter . At the Edge - Articles on archaeology, folklore and mythology . This site is a gazetteer of British ghosts.
