Portals to Imagination
If you google the words “Penny Howe Portal”! Yes, For real … you will end up here at this website The Megalithic Portal!
Okay so here’s the real scoop. Penny Howe is the “site” (geographic location) for a Round Barrow:
Bowl Shaped Barrow
( Hemispherical mounds of earth and/or stone raised over a burial place) In the British Isles, round barrows date to the Bronze Age, although Neolithic examples also exist. Later, round barrows were also used by Romans, Viking and Saxon societies. The site is located in the County of Yorkshire (North) England.
Any now if you click here Penny Howe Portal location you can “see” (lol) the very specific location of the Penny Howe Portal complements of Wikimapia. I do not make this stuff up! Although I could I suppose!
I am still trying to figure out the Portal reference (I think it was met literally,the website with the name being a Portal to other historic barrows), Still it spooks me out a little! So here goes my imagination.
If I did have a portal (Penny’s Portal lol) it would probably happen when I open a book and then it would take me or anyone to somewhere magical – filled with wonderful and imaginative places where the mind can have a most awesome time (Oh wait I think that already happens!) Yes it does, for all of us, how wonderful! Books, YES!
Penny’s Portal – Books!
You know now that I think about it I may change my moniker (pennycoho) to pennysportal. lol
Everyone have a most excellent weekend, thank you for stopping by!
The “Penny” of “The Portal”
With much affection,
Penny
The Why About This 
Well I have been up that way many times and must have passed lots of those barrows but never noticed the connection, I am ashamed. I confess I also hummed The X-Files music when you mentioned Halloween. Book portals are interesting, we all read the same words yet no two interpretations are the same. Love it.
True about book portals. My name appearing in an archeological site from the past, well it’s different anyway! Thanks SteJ
I like it, everything connects, no matter how tenuously, it is a regulkar occurence when entering into a conversation with a certain English chap, we start on something like kids books and end up on about various tactics for WWI trench artillery bombardments, via stories about how caves got there humourous names and other such eclectic stuff.
Yes totally the right kind of “everything connects” connections! Eclectic (such an interesting word isn’t it) stuff, all good however for inquiring minds! 🙂
Penny, I Googled and only got your website:>( Not that your website is not GREAT by any means…just disappointed BUT not in the post…it is awesome as usual and I love the picture!
That’s odd most of the people were able to click and go there. Oh well, it’s weird anyway!
Awesome, famous on Wikipedia by design not even yours! Thanks for finding my pages, Penny. Following yours now 🙂
Thanks, yeah that was a hoot and a half, A mean really, a portal, it looks like a big open field! Still, kinda cool, sorta’ ! 🙂
The Penny Portal…it has a nice ring. And I agree with Robyn, I think you are a spiritual goddess sent to us. 🙂
Yes, the next thing you know people will be popping into my alternative world and then theres no telling what will happen from there! (are you laughing, I am!) Thank you LuAnn, I do appreciate you so much! Please stay the ‘you’ that you are, it is most endearing to me! 🙂 xxoxx

Most interesting, I love your portal, that book picture is awesome, absolutely fantastic, Books are our portals, very true!
Thanks Ute, I will always agree on that subject, books my favorite thing! Penny 🙂
The Penny Portal … I like that. It’s also about 40 miles from where I went in 1977 when I met some Vikings 😀
It’s very impressive.
Yes it is most interesting! 🙂
😀
Hmmm…. I wonder what it all “means” 🙂
Spooky to the “nth” 🙂 So I’m just going with the flow, here, I’m guessing people can have all sorts of mystical “fun” with that one! lol, I did! 🙂
funny but I also had written “insert spooky music” in my reply, but it mysteriously disappeared when I pushed the button. That makes everything even spookier! 🙂
oooooooooo. “Insert spooky music” 🙂
