Can anyone provide me with directions to Long Meg Stone Circle near Penrith, UK? I have looked online without success.

Starting at Penrith:

Head out of town to the northeast. In about five miles, you'll come to the village of Langwathby. Turn left on a minor road (make the turn before the railroad tracks).

You're headed toward Little Salkeld which is only about a mile to the north. A half mile past Little Salkeld a path leads off to the left. Two minute walk from there.

If you're going to do a lot of this kind of stuff, use: http://www.megalithic.co.uk

To get the best scoop, you need to sign up, but there's no charge and they never send you anything. It's a real good source if you're big into rocks -- which is why I wind up traveling alone a good bit.
