Hello all,
i'm generally not the fanciful sort, but has anyone else had an, erm, 'unusual' experience in the Druid's Circle (Penmaenmawr)?

It has been suggested that this one is the most complete stone circle that's known. Or the best example remaining - whatever that means. But life is a strange experience (full stop).

did you read the folklore on this page?

that's pretty weird you have to agree.
I hope you haven't been swearing.

Anyway I'm intrigued now. I think you should tell us what happened?! or add it as a post to the site...

Yes, two things actually! The first strange thing was that I ACTUALLY walked to it. *gasp* The second is that while we were there the sun came out fleetingly!

I think that many People have unusual or extraordinary experiences in many places and so the Druids Circle would be no exception..

I too am intrigued to know what You experienced..

The strangest thing that happened to me at Druid's Circle was being accosted by a mad-woman ranting and raving about how 'despicable I was doing this kind of thing...... I should be ashamed of myself' etc...etc...
Somewhat bemused by events - not an unusual state of affairs, it has to be said - I listened, since, for once I hadn't actually done anything wrong, assuming I'd encountered the usual Christian loon. Then I suddenly fell in what she was on about, namely metal detecting..and I was carrying my walkers pole.

Boy, did we laugh when she found out.......... At least I did.

Speaking of 'unusual' events at sites, however, the best has to be my Dad - a Christian apologist if ever there was one - freaking out at The Chestnuts (Kent) when the divining rods he was holding suddenly went haywire. Proof, if any were needed, that stories of magnetic variations etc are not myth.

Not really strange, more a small coincidence, but I've just come back from hols in North Wales, and we visited the Druid's Circle - what a great site. It definitely has a vibe about it.

btw, thanks to all the folks who posted suggestions of North Wales sites to visit, we visited as many as we could and had a great time, despite the somewhat soggy weather.
