Nine Ladies of Stanton Moor

Stone Circle

Fieldnotes

This is a nice spot and is enhanced by the walk over the moor with all of it's features and megalithic oddities. Stu reassures me that the site looks a lot better now that it's had a good coat of looking at.
The setting amongst the birch trees and with the new turf give the site a park - like quality.
I liked the tree with all the bobbles and ribbons on it. It gives a focus to folk who feel the urge to leave their hair care products at this ancient site, although I think a used bobble is pretty crappy gift to leave. At least they're not strewn all over the stones.
