| Hi G I presume Mick’s alignment is the midwinter sun which was recorded by Thom. Thom also recorded an alignment between Long Meg, Little Meg and Fiends Fell. This alignment indicated the rising point of the sun on or around the two quarter days that fall midway between the spring equinox and summer solstice and between the summer solstice and Autumn equinox. Anderson also suggested an alignment along the same line from the centre of Castlerigg via the second and now lost, outlier which indicated the rising point of the sun on or around May Day. All blagged from John Waterhouses wonderful book, The Stone Circles of Cumbria. Oh Yeh, I much prefer a moody Meg to a sunny one. cheers fitz Reply | with quote |  3rd September 2008ce 20:18 In reply to: Re: Hey hey, another wet day (tiompan) |
