Lough Gur


This site is not overwhelmed with information, but it does have directions and info on the 'interpretative centre'.

Birchover village - Rowtor Rocks


This is a great local history site, if you go back to birchovervillage.co.uk and follow the local history link on the lefthand side, there are pages of info on Stanton Moor, the Nine Ladies, Doll Tor, Harthill and more
That's me there, enjoying the marvellous summer of 2002 on Ynyslas beach.

Grew up in Youlgrave (Derbyshire), now live in glamorous Stoke on Trent. Always loved megaliths, favourites are Nine Ladies (stone circle of my yoof), Bryn Celli Ddu and Trefignath. Can often be found in North Wales and Peaks with t'other half, Sol. Have also had 'lithic adventures in Ireland (esp. Co. Sligo) and Netherlands (hunebedden do indeed rock).

Aside from all things rocky, love Japanese stuff (hoping to explore the wonderful world of J-liths one day) and Tibetan stuff; pretentious aside - rangzen is anglicized from the Tibetan 'brang bstan' which means freedom, as in bod brang bstan! Free Tibet! Really called Jane but there's a lot of us around.

Also good at general pottering around. Work as an ESOL lecturer but am currently (August 2003) off sick for months on end.
