The Cove (Standing Stones) — Fieldnotes

I start at the Cove. Even by Avebury standards these stones are gigantic. I am drawn to these stones more than any others here and I will return twice more during the course of the visit today. It takes until the third time before I actually touch the stones, perhaps it needed building up to! As with the Cove at Stanton Drew, its function is not clear but these two megaliths exert great power. thesweetcheat Posted by thesweetcheat

The Cove (Standing Stones) — Fieldnotes

This is something obviously seen on every visit to Avebury. The one time that sticks in the mind for me was when I was on a guided tour of the site and someone was meditating or something next to the stones. He wasn't doing any harm but the guide quickly moved us along!! Posted by CARL
