There had been devastating floods in Cumbria back in December 2015 and much of the damage was evident; banks eroded away, debris high up in branches. This is the river Eden you can see.

As we walked along the footpath which skirted the river the curious sight of Lacy's Caves appeared. We could have walked around them, C did, but I refused. I don't need to be creeped out.

The walk saw plenty of terrains and sights. Mind your step! We did have one difficult traversement where the path had eroded completely.




I had no idea what the above feature was for but it was fascinating,

Scenery! Ah, fabulous. Below, so many shoots. Are they wild garlic? I really don't know.

The stone circle itself was much bigger than I expected. Not a hope of fitting it all into one picture! We think that this solitary tall stone is Long Meg and the circle are her daughters. It's the kind of place I would enjoy spending a while to explore as well as just sitting down quietly to have a think.

You can just about make out the snowcapped mountains in the background. So picturesque and different from flat Norfolk.


Have you been to a stone circle?
