ORIGINAL: JonnieBoy Hey ... now that SOUNDS like a day out GQ, one of my specialist subjects ... (traditional English pub ... HAUNTED ... AND sitting in the MIDDLE/ish of an ANCIENT STONE CIRCLE) http://www.pub-explorer.com/wiltshire/pub/redlionavebury.htm http://www.flickr.com/photos/neilsingapore/2029804645/ (The Red Lion : Avebury) Pirate TY Piratefor the links...is this the pub that has a well IN it...? if so I have been there... and when I come in the fall...shall I look you up and buy a round..then?? GQ Thats the one [:)] ... right inside the stone circle (by the way, most people who never visited there have no idea how BIG that circle is ... (try Google Earth for an aerial shot of Avebury ... you can revisit the hill and West Kennet Long Barrow too) There are wells near to a lot of the old coach houses and especially the ones that are on the ancient paths and tracks that were there before they became coach routes. Avebury is on the "Ridgeway Path" which is argued by some to be the "oldest road in the world" , nevertheless it has existed at the very least for 5,000 proven years : http://gorp.away.com/gorp/location/europe/uk/uk_mega3.htm (It is part of a ridge road system that used to run from the easternmost edge of the island (Caister area) to the westernmost (Lands End peninsula, Kernow) If you're over this way, feel free to give me a shout, would love to see you ! if schedules do not prevail, it would be disappointing indeed.
