Based on Neil’s Book ‘Lake District, A Megalithic Journey’
As an important part of the megalithic western fringe of ancient Britain the English Lake District is a national treasure. Here we find some of the some of the most amazing and significant stone circles, Viking and Celtic crosses and historical sites from many time periods including some spectacular castles and abbeys. The Northern Lake District ancient, mystical and historical sites tour was the first ever Megalithic tour and it continues to be popular today. With Castlerigg and Long Meg stone circles we are lucky enough to be able to visit two of the best stone circles in Britain and Kemp Howe and the Goggleby Stone are the remains of the ancient Belinus Line. The variety of sites also includes the two magnificent henges of Mayburgh and King Arthur’s Round Table, a Viking hog back stone, ancient thumb crosses, the bizarre Dacre Bears, time in the old Lake District town of Keswick and more.
