Standing stones

I took some time out from my responsibilities to visit a site not far away that has some marvellous standing stones.

Monteneuf



Brittany is littered with these Megaliths, as is Cornwall, Southern and Western England right through to Scotland, Shetland, Orkney and Ireland.

In fact the western seaboard of Europe has an interesting history of shared culture from Galicia through to Scandinavia. Perhaps due to the common racial heritage of those first hunter gatherers who colonised the empty lands as the ice sheet retreated.

Beautiful place, sunny day.

Spring is coming..............
