Sunset today
The name Lindow is derived from Llyn Ddu = Lake Black. The lake shot to fame in 1984 when the preserved body of a man was discovered by commercial peat cutters. The word on the street is that Pete Bog / Pete Marsh / Lindow Man may well have been a sacrifice of some sort. His body has been carbon dated to between 2BC and 119AD – so he’s quite old.
I've never been there but I'd like too. A great view!
ReplyDeleteIt's a lovely place, well worth a vist - and not too far for you I think!
DeleteHi JJ. Thanks for your email. Your blog is not boring, I've added it to the list on my sidebar. I should do more walking but an elderly dog is stopping me getting out as much as I would like. I want to do another long one in the spring. Not getting any younger, need to do it now.
