Castlerigg stone circle is 3 kilometers 37 minutes from Keswick by walking or you can drive there limited free parking on the road side. It is open 24 hours with no entrance fee. Castlerigg was built 4000 years ago by prehistoric farming communities for providing a setting for rituals or ceremonial activities, social exchanges and the movements of goods. The rectangle stone setting within the circle known as sanctuary, is likely to be a later addition to focus attention upon one part of the circle. Sheep is around the site, so there is a stone wall to surround it. Children can play with the sheep and climbing on the stone.
