Walking the Ancient Path in a Modern World
A half hour’s drive from my previous site visit I was into the depths of Oxfordshire, and heading toward a site that I had only visited a couple of times before – The Devil’s Quoits near to the village of Stanton Harcourt.

Lammas is a bitter sweet time for me now. I remember well last year’s visit to Kilmartin in Scotland. This was the last proper outing that Kal and I had together.
