Title: Found on a walk in Dovedale

This is a picture I took of a rock whilst walking in Dovedale. It looks like some sort of animal head, probably a dragon. Funny what the weather can do to rock formations.

The area that this rock was found is in a large valley and as far as I know the area used to be under water originally. There are loads of stones along the route where actual large fossils have been found. :)

If its easy to find a feel a trick coming on ;)

Post by: wolflike on April 10, 2007, 07:14:53: Its right next to the main path.

I think, if I remember rightly, it is before the section where it goes up a set of steps. Which means it is not very far at all.

Sorry I can't be more precise. Hope this helps.

My kids are 14 and 16 and my 14 year old believed us! ;D

Post by: glow777 on April 10, 2007, 12:44:47: I think I know the bit you mean. Steps up quite steep and steps down a little bit later river bends to the left(looking up river). Last question - looking up river (river on the left) is it on the left or right of the path

Post by: HealerDave on April 22, 2007, 15:26:00: I can't really believe I am posting this, but that rock is amazing. A rock with a difference, right in the middle of the land of my ancestors AND I can remember when you could park there for free!

The last one above from sally_cinammon I think looks more like a gargoyle's head looking slightly right and forward?

Any more?

Post by: Grandma on April 22, 2007, 23:59:45: There's a perfect carp there - (sorry, I can't do arrows or circles) - but the fish is looking to the right and the blackbird is sitting on its back, just to the right of its tail fin!

Post by: ninnyscrops on April 23, 2007, 11:27:38: I can see a beaked animal talking to a one eared mouse, under the ledge next to the sleeping hedgehog!
