To be fair a lot of websites designed to draw in punters (that I've seen) are not that helpful to the average member (or perceptive visitor) to TMA. Not saying TMA folk are more intelligent; rather that we perhaps use what we have to a greater degree. The brain requires exercise, after all.
So rather pleasantly surprised that this DIY effort is refreshingly informative. If you happen to have children, I reckon this is truly an ideal site to fire the young psyche. Can there be a more precious gift a parent can bestow? Mine was. Eternal thanks to my father - now an old man - for taking his son here back in the early 80's and freaking out that mind full of swirling hormones. This is a place of legend, of life, death and every state in between!
Hey, the Llewleyns (the farm - and castle owners) even organise weddings. What better way for two people deeply in love to cement their commitment to each other than by venturing to the well at the terminus of the cave? Searing emotion with no hiding place. Jeez. A Citizen Cairn can dream, I guess. Yeah, having sat with my hand in the pool of water percolating down from the roof in utter darkness... my heart pounding like the Oberheim DMX from Blue Monday... I can well understand our ancestors' (apparent) connection with this crazy, spinning globe. There is an awful lot we can learn from the past, methinks.
