Mayburgh Henge
Henge:”A monument comprising a circular ditch with an external bank which encloses a circle or number of circles of stones or wooden posts.“..says www.newarchaeology.com/articles/gloss.htm
..now let’s be honest.. when ya think of a henge.. like say stonehenge.. castlerigg stone circle.. you’re thinking there’s quite a bit to see.. i mean.. in a stoney kinda way.. *smiles* well.. during our stay in Cumbria.. Plainjane took us around a few stone henges.. bless her, and this one, Mayburgh Henge.. and i think i’m confidently speaking on everyone’s behalf.. was well.. kinda disappointing.. i mean the sign even makes it look intriguing..
..and this is it.. one stone.. ok.. i know it says on the sign that there is one remaining.. but after having to pratically hike up a steep slope.. even go through a lil gate.. to be faced with that was kinda.. odd to say the least.. it just didnt have the air of history like Castlerigg did..
..nevertheless.. it’s another “stone circle” added to our list of stone circles visited.. i just wish that stone had some friends.. cos it’d be awfully lonely being isolated within a ditch.. *pets the lone stone*
..we also got to see King Arthur’s Round Table.. kinda.. when we went past.. a cow was sitting on it.. 
hehe.. exploration is fun
