Dragons Teeth

Posted by Richard_Irwin (Belper, United Kingdom) on 11 November 2007 in Landscape & Rural.

All over Harboro rocks are strange protrusions of weathered limestone outcrops, which appear as serrated 'dragons teeth' from a distance, so some people refer to the place as 'dragons hill'. There is a cave here too, so perhaps the dragon lives in it. Me and the family once watched the sun rise from here on the midsummer solstice, it was great to be the only people up there witnessing the sun come up over the horizon on the longest day of the year. I also went up there once in a blizzard, and posted a picture of it here http://wideangle.aminus3.com/image/2007-06-05.html
Now in November, the wind can be a bit vicious, but if the light is right, and you shelter behind a rock, its a great place to sit and contemplate the world around you.
