Looking for Legends

In July 2013 I'm staging my next major exhibition. Its going to comprise paintings, prints, poetry and stories based on legends and anecdotes about places in the Yorkshire Dales.

I've already found quite a number of great tales like the story of Sir Hugh de Morville, one of the knights who murdered Thomas a Becket, and who haunts the ruins of Pendragon Castle or the spectral hound - the Barguest - which attacks travellers though Trollers Gill.

However, I'm sure there are some great stories out there waiting to be discovered. For example, one place I'd love to know more about is the tiny stone circle at Yockenthwaite in Langstrothdale - pictured right. Its only about ten feet across but in a staggeringly beautiful location.

Thanks, in anticipation.
