Yesterday proved that West Penwith always has something new to offer, as I visited 3 ancient sites I'd not been to before; Caer Bran, the Blind Fiddler standing stone and Trelew standing stone (guarded by some feisty horses!). #StandingStoneSunday #WestPenwith #Cornwall #ancientmonuments

This is a truly terrible photo of Swarkestone Causeway, near us. First mentioned in docs in 1204, it's a mile long, and apparently haunted by the sound of Bonnie Prince Charlie's men clashing with the King's men from Derby in 1745.

Not Crazy
It would have been used by the Romans. It's what they did with #ancientmonuments

Crazy Stonehenge theory of the day 100 years ago was the idea it was a temple of Horus, as set out in the Western Daily Press by Ernest Sibree. Suffice to say the argument depends on dodgy etymology (from Geoffrey of Monmouth - nuff said), chronology (Horus=Apollo, who was known in Roman Britain)…
Cutting from the Western Daily Press for Saturday, January 24, 1925, headlined "More About Stonehenge. A Sun God Temple. (By E. Sibree)"

A Window in Wexford. #TinternAbbey #IrishHeritage #HistoricIreland #AbbeyRuins #IrishHistory #CistercianAbbey #MonasticSite #Travellreland #Explorelreland #AncientMonuments #CountyWexford #smartphonephotography #photography
A low-angle interior shot within Tintern Abbey, Ireland, showing a tall, arched window with multiple panes and a diamond-shaped lattice pattern. The window casts intricate, patterned shadows on the wooden floor. Outside, a bright green field and trees are visible under a bright sky. To the left, a framed image hangs on a white brick wall, and to the right, another framed painting is partially visible, also on a white brick wall. The scene evokes a sense of historical tranquility and natural beauty.

Castle and Clouds. #DuckettsGrove #Carlow #IrishHistory #GothicArchitecture #CastleRuins #Explorelreland #HistoricEstate #IrishCastles #HiddenGemslreland #Travellreland #AncientMonuments #ArchitecturalGems #smartphonephotography #photography
A magnificent, imposing view of Duckett's Grove, a Gothic Revival mansion in County Carlow, Ireland, stands under a bright, cloudy sky. The main focus is the elaborate central tower, constructed from light-coloured stone, with intricate detailing, arched windows, and a crenellated top. To the left and right, the substantial remains of the mansion's walls, with their distinctive pointed arches and decorative stonework, convey a sense of its former grandeur despite their ruinous state. Lush green grass stretches across the foreground, leading up to the historic structure, which evokes a strong sense of Irish heritage and romantic decay.

A Tomb with a View. #SeefinPassageTomb #WicklowMountains #IrishHeritage #AncientMonuments #HikingIreland #MountainViews #IrelandTravel #HistoricSites #LandscapePhotography #Explorelreland #smartphonephotography #photography
A wide-angle, elevated view of the Seefin Passage Tomb cairn in County Wicklow, Ireland, under a bright blue sky with wispy clouds. The foreground shows a large mound of grey stones with the dark, circular opening of the tomb visible at its centre. Beyond the cairn, the landscape stretches out into the distance with rolling green hills, patches of dark forest, and a glimpse of a lake under the expansive horizon. The overall mood is one of historical significance and natural grandeur.
