Rhiannon

Top photos of the amazing Irish-style carvings on a click-on-able plan of the tomb.

Jenny’s page shows two long shots which really give you an idea of the expanse of rock some of the carvings cover.

Penny Drayton gives an interesting account of ‘ox hides’ and prehistoric sites.

Frank E Earp’s article on the Old Stones of Nottinghamshire talks mainly of the Hemlock Stone but mentions some other local sites.

A giant picked up this stone to trash a rival’s house with. You can still see his fingermarks in it. On the way there he slipped and dropped it, and it lies where it fell.
This site tells you everything you could wish to know about the history and folklore of the Tibblestone at its 6-ways crossroads.

Various photos illustrate Sandy’s description

Gives directions and photos of the site.

Once again Alastair’s site comes up trumps with nine pages of information and photos of this little known circle (marked as ‘cairn’ on the OS).

Yet another link for the ADAS – but their site is very useful for this part of the country so I make no apology.

This webpage shows the older standing stone in front of the hillfort.

Photos and description of the excellently named Buwch a’r Llo (Cow and Calf) and another nearby standing stone.

Photo and description of the ‘classic’ site, with 5 monoliths (of a stone circle?) embedded in the wall of this churchyard.

Megalithic Wales has some photos and a description of the site.

Photos of the site from a number of angles

Liam Rogers’s (winter 2001) discussion of how the site might be restored sensitively.

From Leek, on certain days the sun appears to set twice over The Cloud – a prominent hill north of the Bridestones.

This hill is topped by a neolithic round barrow – the site gives archaeological details, photo and map.

Unfortunately extensively quarried on one side, this hill has got to have been considered a top spot by the ancients. Bree-don: what more do you want? Views, earthworks and Saxon carvings of people, animals and plants in the hilltop church. This booklet has many photos and memories of Breedon and the surrounding area.

Interesting photos of this unobtrusive site, with pictures of the carved faces and simulacra on the stones (plus other Welsh sites, by John Harding)

An old photograph of the site, taken by Alvin Langdon Coburg.
