The Hurlers at Minions, and other local monuments


The Hurlers
The Pipers
Stowe's Hill cairns

The Longstone Cross


Whilst following a quarry track en route to the Craddock Moor stone circle, I inadvertently flushed a short-eared owl (Asio flammeus) from roost. As soon as the bird was airborne it was persistently harried by a pair of raven (Corvus corax) until it was forced from view over the edge of the Cheeswring quarry.
