>>Makes me want to don a long cloak and grow a long white beard and speak in tongues and live in a secret cave. Unless thats just a common fantasy completely unrelated to the majgijgic of Castlerigg, which until now has resided in the dankest corners of my mind.

I think you'll find that's a common reaction.
Either that or my club or Wanting to do Strange Things in the Vicinity of Old Stones has just got its second member.

aGREED PIX

an amazing place to visit

here's my story.......

visiting the site in the late afternoon/early evening i was taken aback by the splendour of the setting...i looked around when in the aforementioned rectangular section of the ring when i came face to face with a young brown bull.......over the next few minutes...twelve more of these bulls appeared and stood around me inquisitavley.........up till this time i had been a meateater...it was a taurus full moon...there were 13 bulls...the thought entered my head to give up eating dead animals...and did!!

next thing a dog came along and started chasing our little dog around...all the bulls took offence to this and chased the dog away over the horizion...not to be seen again

i've been to the site a few times now and only seen sheep there...also got some really good pictures of mysterious lights refracting from the stones...i will post them when i get the broadband.........
