Day 9 Cheddar Gorge, Stanton Drew Stone Circle, Bath

Sign coming into the town of Cheddar. The roads were crazy small some areas with only one car width and no on coming visibility. 

the only pictures of downtown Cheddar.  We were there around 8:30am and the shops didn't open until 10.  The streets were very, very narrow, parking was hard to understand and it was stressing John and me out to navigate/drive around, so we drove the gorge from both directions and headed out without making it to the Cheddar Cheese factory.

Sage in a red telephone booth.  This one was really interesting-it is a book exchange.

Stanton Drew Stone Circle-2nd largest stone circle in UK.  We were lost and stopped at a retirement home directly in front of the circle.  I asked the lady how to get to the circle-she told me that she did not know about a circle, but did give me directions back to bath.  We turned around in the parking area and started back up the road as soon as we turned out of the parking lot the sign for the circle was right there.
I walked out to see it-despite the cow poop on the ground
