Full description:

Technically the day after the equinox, but this way we won’t upset anyone celebrating the solstice at the stone circle! A lovely evening walk from Monyash, down through the top end of Lathkill Dale, then up and out near Cales Dale where we’ll make our way over the fields to Arbor Low stone circle and stop for a picnic tea. After our picnic and wander (maybe a ritual sacrifice or something) we’ll head the easy way back into Monyash and probably go to a pub.

Bring food for a picnic and a £1 coin – the stone circle is looked after by English Heritage on the grounds that visitors pay a small contribution to the landowner.

Public transport or car sharing options:

This one is best accessible by car sharing, Monyash has no real bus routes please use Meetup comments to share rides there. There is a car park on Chapel Street at ///spires.inventors.goodbyes

Be prepared:

Please be prepared and come appropriately dressed, bearing in mind this is an evening walk and it will get chillier later on. Please bring food and plenty of water.
