Photos of Blakely Rise

Blakely Rise (otherwise known as Blakely Raise, or Kinniside) is a small stone circle on the western fringe of the Lake District, south of Ennerdale Bridge.


Blakely Rise stone circle
Blakely Rise is a small, stone circle just south of Ennerdale Bridge. It is very easy to reach, situated just off the minor road south towards Haile.

As you travel south from Ennerdale Bridge the road emerges into open moorland. Blakely Rise is set beside the road.

None of the 11 stones of the circle are terribly large; what makes Blakely Rise so interesting is the location.

Blakely Rise has been reconstructed, and the stones have been set in concrete for stability.

Here you see the circle to best advantage in its open setting. Blakely Rise is sometimes called Kinniside stone circle.
