Swinside Stone Circle

Swinside (Sunkenkirk) Stone Circle, Broughton-in-Furness, Cumbria

One of our favourite stone circles - not too easy to get to, but not too complicated either, and always worth the effort.

Swinside Stone Circle (also known as Sunkenkirk) is a lovely well-preserved circle located on private ground which consists of 55 stones set in a 28.7m diameter circle. It can easily be viewed from a nearby public footpath however a small number of courteous visitors make the trip to the stones themselves, arousing the suspicions of playful calves.
