Hi Captain
It seems there used to be one helluva cluster of sites scattered in the general region here. Graeme Chappell and me checked a lotta stuff in this area in the 1980s & found that many of the stones registered on some of the old records had perished - but we know we didn't check everything (how can anyone?). There was once a nice standing stone midway between Great Almscliffe & Little Almscliffe, seemingly gone (unless it's hidden at the bottom of a wall somewhere) which bisected a near-perfect midsummer/midwinter alignment between the 2 natural outcrops. And the list of stones on the local boundary perambulation records is quite something - some of which were truly old, others more recent. If ever you fancy a wander in search of some of the stuff round there, lemme know. Me 'n' Richard Stroud (RockRich) keep exploring the region just a few miles west around Blubberhouses, where there's still quite a lot of stuff to be discovered. This whole region's rather strange. It 'smells' like there's stuff hidden - and there are some very odd localised folklore clusters peppered about that speak of typical pre-christian sites & goings-on. It'd be good to hear if you find anything.
Best wishes - Paulus
