With all that lovely heather in the background it could be Aberdeenshire!
Just the fantastic hunebed (I had to google that) in the foreground gives it away. Great stuff Les.

Indeed. The highland cattle were a surprise (though I didn't actually see them), making the whole experience rather like being back home. LesHamilton Posted by LesHamilton

It can't be the Shire, it's dry. Great stuff Les, really enjoying the pics and notes. drewbhoy Posted by drewbhoy

Thanks Drew.
I really recommend taking a trip to Drenthe to take in these Passage Graves. Lots of great walking through lovely countryside to many of them, and also sometimes a navigational challenge to actually find them. You would absolutely be in your element here.
