Gray Hill

Stone Circle

Southern outlier looking somewhat like a stoned Dave Vanian from The Damned. Good to see the vegetation back as well.

Looks like the spray painted hand is slowly disappearing.	Posted by thesweetcheat 25th September 2015ce


Nice looking stone that and from experience Vanian is a good party animal. Whats the markings on the wee stone in front Mr G?	Posted by drewbhoy 26th September 2015ce


I can well imagine. I assumed the holes might be for sticking gunpowder in when people used to come to these places for celebrations back in the day. Perhaps TSC knows?	Posted by GLADMAN 26th September 2015ce


Cheers Mr G at least it wasn't anything more destructive. It is a nice looking site and pencilled in.	Posted by drewbhoy 26th September 2015ce


Interesting, hadn't noticed that before. That's certainly a feature of some Cornish sites (in mining communities where explosives were "available", which would be true in South Wales as well) and the stone is nice hard granite at Grey Hill too, so could well be - don't think I'd put dynamite in limestone!
