Rosemorran (Standing Stone / Menhir) — Fieldnotes

At the site the wall curves round in a semi circle and in it ( the wall ) are two 9 footers (see photos) and two 6 footers, three of these would fall on a circle and one just outside, i couldn't help but imagine the wall not been there and just the stones on what would seem to be the circumference of a circle, it may be nothing, but i think it's a strange site.

Tremenheere (Standing Stone / Menhir) — Fieldnotes

I first saw this site on Pastscape,but it had only given an approximate OS number.
The names of all the farms and buildings around are all called Tremeneer,Treminheere etc which means "the place of the standing stone"
As I live only 30mins walk from my front door I thought I'd take a look. At the place called Tremenheere (there's a higher and lower) I saw a big standing stone about 9 feet+.
I went back the next day with my camera and the farmer was there. He told me that when he was young the stone had stood where it is now,it had then been pulled down and buried. The plough kept hitting it so it was moved to the hedge.
The fella said he had always had an urge/feeling to put it back,he had always remembered since being young where it had stood.
A few years ago when he had the equipment and people he put it back up.
Its a classic Cornwall standing stone,I realised this as soon as I first saw it.
Its well worth a visit if your around this way.

Built the stone circle in picture at lincoln on 2/4/07, got prosecuted and threatened with eviction out of our house[fuck them! i now live in cornwall], photos and letters for a week in local press and on local tv, local council didn't like the fuss it was causin and pulled it down the next day, which created a backlash for us in local press, then got fined in court, making us surely one of the only people to get prosecuted for building a stone circle, dirty rotton christians, we need a heathen revolution!!!NOW. Outer body experience showed me where to build it, it certainly looked right, i hope you agree.I have had 100's of psychedelic experiences and visited about 1000 sites, with true stone circles always my favourites. My most treasured experiences are getting touched by a being of light and the birth of my kids- orion and beth, my names paul blades, and believe me things will change for the better, even if it takes eco terrorism, the earth's very own warriors, peace and light. The mothers about to kick ass!!!!
