There is something about megaliths and stone circles that draws me inexorably towards them. No matter how remote, how distant, they become something of an obsession for me. So when I visited the Lake District (have you checked out the video on my visit to the house of...

As a Quest Club member, you have probably figured out by now that the UK is one of my favourite places for archaeological sites. And one of the reasons is the sheer number of ancient megalithic sites, most of which are 4000 years old, or even older. Not only are they...

Elsewhere at The Quest Club, you will find videos about Stonehenge, its origin, the archaeological excavations and studies and the secrets revealed therein. But was there a "lost Stonehenge"? This BBC video from 2021 seeks to answer this question and examines the...

Here's a video from 2009, which uses archaeology as a basis for an attempt to unravel the secrets of Stonehenge. The video is interesting, and provides some background information as well, in addition to everything I've written in The Secret of the Druids. Do leave a...

In The Secret of the Druids, I have written about Anglesey and the fierce battle that was fought as the Romans attacked the island - Anglesey - that was where the Druids made their last stand as the Roman army went about exterminating them. Here is a video which has...

Warning: there are spoilers in this post, so if you have not read The Secret of the Druids, you should not read this post until you have completed reading the book. It had been a rough flight from Aberdeen to Kirkwall. Earlier that afternoon, on a surprisingly sunny...
