Arbour Low, Derbyshire
Arbour Low is a recumbent stone circle within a henge, similar in kind to Avebury. Above is a panorama across the site in a series of shots. Pan to the right to see all of it.
Notice in the picture below, the escarpment on the horizon making a 'notch' in the hills a little to the right of the centre of the picture. The two stones in the centre of the circle, shown above, line up with that notch and also match a ley-line running straight through the centre of the circle.
Above right, offerings on the centre stone. There are many others too, showing this is a much used ritual space. If you are using a space like this, remember the code - if you must leave offerings, make sure they are biodegradable and are never toxic (like salt) or damaging, (like wax). Otherwise leave nothing but footprints, take nothing but memories.
