Despite not feeling quite like myself, I've spent much of this month on the road, which I always love!
Day 51/365
Sunday, 1 June 2008
The Burial Chamber at St Lythans, a megalithic burial chamber dated to around 4000 B.C. (that's 1000 years before Stonehenge). I've been wanting to see this since I moved here. It's very close to where I live, but I hadn't figured out just where it was. I found it and was surprised at how much bigger it was than I thought. A person could almost stand upright inside it. Really, it's an amazing site. To think they were hauling around slabs of stone weighing tons before they'd even invented wheels! I'll have to stop again at Tinkinswood Burial Chamber in the same area and post that one on another day.
