If you want awkward, what about this one at Templewood. That must have been done before it was stood up.

It's also relevant to Pilgrim's mates sailing to Kilmartin, as I reckon the double spirals vanishing into the hole are making reference to the Coryvreckan whilrlpool.



What I think noticeable about the Temple Wood spirals is that they look like they were done by different people at different times , despite being conjoined .One is clear and angular not nearly as sophisticated as the weathered one .The differential weathering could be due to their relative positions to the elements but I think it is more than that .

What about the Morwick spirals are they representing puffins fling in circles at the Farne Isles and those at Newgrange a storm in the Boyne .
