Rachel Chapple's list of sites

Words from Rachel Chapple. Visiting all of these could be a real adventure...

"You will hear the traces of our fingerprints whispering to you whilst you follow the ordinary water that flows from the Red Lady of Paviland, Gough's Cave and Creswell Crags, through the Mendips, Star Carr and Oronsay, whilst you pause at Sweet Track on the Somerset Levels, and ponder the Cursus and Maes Howe, and after the henges at Avebury and Silbury Hill, listen patiently at Cissbury and Grimes Graves before continuing onto Banthan and Mount Batten, and beyond..."

Great list! I would add... See eye to eye with the ravens at the Tower of London and stand there wondering where Bran's head is buried, go back to West Kennet and Swallowhead Spring, Adam's Grave and Mother's Jam... and of course the Twelve Apostles on Ilkley Moor... seek out the inscribed stones...
