* Small prehistoric and historic items occasionally appear in the 'archaeological' landscapes and townscapes and there are many historic and ancient churches and other buildings in these towns and villages rich in history in and around the moorland, with their own extensive prehistory-archaeology stretching back over 1000 years of history and as well as the tumuli (burial mounds) megalithic standing stone alignments of the 4000+ years of very ancient prehistoric archaeology, items in the landscape well worth pausing for a visit.   *  page updated July 20th 2008  *  EMAIL Phil Brown  *  images snapshots photographs pictures views scenes views pics photos snaps webshots © Phil Brown docspics of this area of North Yorkshire, North of England
