HW: RE: places to go/ nearest castle/stone monolith or circle

[Burro Mike]

Roman mines and Iron age hill forts sound just right to me. I am planting myself at the fest, but am willing to venture off for a few hours...Cheers, Mike

Hi Mike,

For castles, I would recommend Nunny castle in Somerset.  It is about 2
hours away but I love it, mostly because my family used to own it before
granny gave it to the national trust.

Near to the festival site, there are Roman mines which are well worth
seeing.  If you want stone circles etc, then Stonehenge is a must see, as is
the complex at Avebury (better than Stonehenge IMHO) and there are masses of
stone rows etc on Dartmoor (further down into Devon).

Cheers,

Colin
