Positive Evolution

ancient places

I enjoy visiting stone circles, castles, old forests, mountains and other ancient or amazing sites. I will be adding photos and information about other places as I visit (or re-visit!) them. Apologies for the poor quality of the pre 2005 pictures, the scanner seems to be giving up! Click on the name of a place to take you to it's page.

A lot of the information has come from MEGALITHIC and ENGLISH HERITAGE websites.

All the photos were taken by me.

Do I belong to some ancient race
I like to walk in ancient places
These are the things that I can understand
I don't believe in your modern way
Don't care about the things you say
Your policies have failed the test of time
Cos you sold them down the river
