Absolutely - the Wemyss Caves near Buckhave, Fife, Scotland (near where I live). Featured in BBC's Time Team. Ancient caves scrawled with mysterious Pictish symbols which to this day haven't been understood.

Also in Scotland there's the Clava Cairns near Nairn, Callanish on Lewis, Skara Brae in Orkney and some good books around with lots of detailed sites.

Roach Abbey near Doncaster in Yorkshire would be ideal for that.

What about all the stone circles - like Stone Henge, Arbor low and so on?
