 Black Horse of Bush Howe 11 messages | Select a forum: |
| Just bought a book called Lost Gods Of Albion, by Paul Newman. It's all about hill figures. Right at the end (page 209) he mentions The Black Horse of Bush Howe on the Howgill Fells near Sedbergh in the North Pennines. It's meant to be 427ft long and 361ft high and made up of black shale. Newman quotes Guy Ragland Phillips who researched it and says it looks like the representation of horses seen in ancient French and Spanish cave paintings. Can't find ANYTHING about it on the net, and this is he first i've heard about it. Apparently the figure appears on no OS maps. Any Ideas??
