Glassel

Stone Circle

Fieldnotes

03/02/2013 - I don't know what it is about stone circles in woods but I love them. I guess that most were not originally in amongst trees but I think a nice clearing in a wood sure adds an enchanted feeling. Glassel stone circle is a special place. Five, small, upright stones, looking for all the world like they are deep in conversation and after a few thousand years they still haven't run out of things to say.

There's a nice photo on Canmore of the circle with the fallen stone re-erected from 1903, link below
