21/06/21 Dozens of people, including cyclists and runners, converge on Arbor Low to watch a golden Soltice sunrise at 4:40 on the longest day of the year. Set high in the Derbyshire Peak District near Monyash, Arbor Low is a well-known and impressive prehistoric monument, sometimes referred to as ‘the Stonehenge of the North’, owing to its henge bank and ditch, stone circle and cove. The most important prehistoric site of the East Midlands, Arbor Low is a Neolithic henge monument atmospherically set amid high moorland. Within an earthen bank and ditch, a circle of some 50 white limestone slabs, all now fallen, surrounds a central stone ‘cove’ – a feature found only in major sacred sites. ***Drone was flown with correct permissions and distances maintained*** All Rights Reserved: F Stop Press Ltd. +44 (0)7765 242650
