Knowlton Winter Solstice

Another lovely ritual with the Dorset Grove, the time the Winter Solstice open ritual out at Knowlton Henge; set in the archaeologically important Cranborne Chase, Knowlton was an important ritual complex throughout prehistory, later the sites must have continued their draw on the local populous as one of the henges (the only one which remains visible) was 'Christianized' withe addition of a church, a church that itself now lay abandoned and in ruins. Still the site is important to both pagan and Christian alike. Today, the weather may have been wintry, but the warmth of the circle easily made up for it. Thanks to the Grove for another lovely ritual.
