Field of Towers…

County Tyrone, Wednesday, June 18, 2022…

***

***

Barbrook One* on Big Moor

in Derbyshire, England, follows a similar pattern.

***

***

But there, the cairn is associated with only one circle.

***

***

And the cairn has a different structure.

***

 

 

***

The stones heaped

in a mound

rather than a hub.

***

 

***

Though there are cairns

like that on Little-Big Moor too.

***

 

 

***

It is enough to start one pondering.

***

 

***

In, the Battle of Moytura,*

the healing well of the Crafty Folk

is blocked by the Fomorians using river stones.

***

***

It is a decisive moment in the battle.

***

***

And means that the warriors slain in the fight,

can no longer be brought back from the dead alive.

***

***

It may be possible

to get this site working again.
