Visited a day after being married. PERFECT!!!! Seemed the right place to be. Another special place.

WOW!!! ! The feelings, I just can't describe. Go there, as I did, in dusk. Looking over that amazing view, you can't help think they got it SO right.

what can i say....this circle leaves me speechless. Yes it's set in a farmers field, close to a busy road, but the feeling of closeness to the spirits..... truely awesome......
By the way, this is Steph, not Chris!!!!

Theres not much to add to TMA's entry - only to say that if you're in Scotland you MUST visit this site. It's such a cool little circle. It's partly in a field, partly on a verge,has a B-road running through it, and has been 'enhanced' with concrete and steel- and yet it just rises above the last 2 millenia and KNOWS it. awesome.
(Just take a reflective jacket and be prepared to dive for cover)

Whatever you do, do not follow the signs to the official car park, unless you fancy a 2.5 mile trek down the Ridgeway. Check out your OS map and you'll see there's a small lane midway between the site and the car park- Once at the site, you'll find a great longbarrow , although not on the scale of West Kennet, it's somehow more inspiring. Set in a copse of tall trees, the only sound is that of the wind sighing through the trees, and a feeling of total tranquility pervades the whole area-forget what I said earlier-the long walk makes it all the more worthwhile-go early and forget for a few moments the teeming mass of human life thats all too close.
