I've looked at a number of stone burial sites in Ireland. That looks less like a small circle to me than an old tomb. I notice rough shaped ground to one side with a hollow in the middle. This could be what you describe as a burial mound to the east. That direction fits with ancient practice in Ireland. Flattish stones being upended and set in a coffin shape facing east. Look up Carrowmore, County Sligo for lots of examples to compare. Its a major site predating the more famous Newgrange across the country. Most tombs are individual and scattered around the country and many look like Doll Tor. I'm from Lancashire and moved here a few decades ago. Seeing how the ancient folk had a similar culture across north and west Europe blows me away.
I enjoyed this a lot but one suggestion: slow down your camera work! You go too fast, lol I had to keep pausing the video just to see things. Aside from that I love your choice of music and also excellent choice of place to visit, thank you!

... yeah, it's crazy. It's almost like humans all over the world had the exact same building materials readily, and importantly available to them and common sense just dictates. The humans will stack rocks on top of each other and humans will set rocks in certain configurations to mark important dates
Nice place, It makes me think of a place that does not exist now and was demolished in the early 60's called Drakelow Hall and I imagine that this would look very similar to the gardens, it had a fountain and was called 'The Wilderness' and had a wall round it, The hall also had a sunken garden at the back of the house which led onto the river Trent, The demolished all of it to make way for Drakelow Power station and the train line running into the site, but the outhouses still remain.
What a find, brilliant.i understand why it's hidden away can you imagine the hordes of people coming to gawp and chamber over it. Well done and thanks for posting.
But no mention of the cut steps or the dog iron staples - ? Obviously someone decided to have a better view from the top, but it would be good to know who and maybe why.
The first thing I would do is have a look from the top. I have climbed ( scrambled up not exactly mountaineeing) a few of these rocks in the Staffordshire area where they are plentiful. Most dumped during one of the 3 ice ages we know of. Interesting video thanks.
seems ironic that they can barely restore it - cant ever imagine anything like this being built these days again and yet we are told we live in 'modern times' and well .......
It was free to walk around in the 80's. Unfortunately, your camera work leaves much to be desired. Too fast, too much movement, and no descriptions of what we can see.
we used to play in there during the sixties after riding bikes from Somercotes. Parked the bikes against a high wall. Then climbing the wall to gain access, Never thought anyone seeing the bikes would guess we were inside.
Very interesting. Bess of Hardwick has been famous for centuries. When you make another video could you ttry to keep the camera still? It makes one quite dizzy.. I see other people have worded this same request differently from me, so I am not alone.
I've visited many stately homes , Manor houses , Palaces etc but Hardwick Hall is by far the best and I mean the BEST property I've ever seen , the history of Bess of Hardwick etc ohhhhh wonderful ,
