Thor's Stone, Thurstaston - We took a visit

Thor's Stone, Thurstaston - We took a visit in October 2021 we also took a nice walk around Thurstaston Common.
Thurstaston Hill is the location of Thor's Stone, a large sandstone outcrop and a place of romantic legend. In the 19th century it was supposed that early Viking settlers may have held religious ceremonies here. A visit to the site by members of the British Archaeological Association in 1888 heard an account by Rev. A. E. P. Gray, rector of Wallasey, that the 'Thor Stone' was also known in the locality as 'Fair Maiden's Hall' and that children were "in the habit of coming once a year to dance around the stone"

Was on the common last week. The whole place was awash with colour from the heather that grows there. Beautiful place.
