Amazing nineteenth century folly.Styled after stone circles and well known prehistoric monuments such as Stonehenge.

The Druids Temple was built to alleviate local unemployment, allowing William Danby, a wealthy landowner of the time to pay workers a shilling a day for their labour.

At less than 200 years old, it is nonetheless an atmospheric and intriguing location.

Despite its origin being common knowledge, myths and rumours of mystic practices have sprung up over its lifetime with tales of Devil worship and harrowing frights experienced by those who have spent the night. It's a bit spooky even in daylight hours!

A quirky folly which is not a druid’s temple. It was built by the landowner during a time of hardship for the people of the village to give them some work to earn money.

This was the perfect spot for lunch on this walk, just over halfway round and after the climb. This is an interesting place, my kids loved exploring it and we stayed about an hour before moving on.
