Towtop Kirk

Enclosure

Miscellaneous

Bit of controversy over this one.
In his book "Walks in Ancient lakeland" Robert Harris says, "This ancient henge is slightly smaller but similar in scale to King Arthur's Table at Penrith, but it seems to lack the interior ditch.
English Heritage's record of Scheduled Monuments describes the site as an "Early Christian Enclosure".

Could this be a christianised henge? Roll on the good weather! 		fitzcoraldo Posted by fitzcoraldo
