A challenge for you from Vlad.

I observed this symbol carved into the west wall of St Bueno's church at Culbone. It is somewhat familiar, as it resembles the ancient Celtic symbol for inspiration,'Awen'. This may make sense, Culbone being as close to Wales as it is. However, although the three lines that point downward look correct, this symbol has a solid line running across the top, whereas Awen has three 'dots' at the head of the lines representing three points of light, the three lines representing rays emanating from these points. My question is this:
Is this symbol a variation of the Celtic symbol Awen, or is it something else entirely? Your assistance in this matter is appreciated, there are no prizes, however you will win my respect and admiration if you are able to cast light onto the true meaning of this enigmatic carving. It would please me if you were so kind as to leave your suggestions in the comments section below.

I don't have any knowledge with this kind of sign. This thing was nor even taught to us in school that is why it's impossible for me to solve the problem given to us by Vlad. But big thanks for the trivia you had posted above. A sign is definitely hard to understand especially if you don't know something about that. I am just hoping to have some time to learn this stuff. It would be a big thing for me of course!

Great observation! It was an interesting symbol. I hope that someone will do the research and investigation regarding this matter. They should focus on the history and origin of St Bueno's church at Culbone where the symbol was curved. Though at some point, many will just say that it's just only three lines. Well, there's no problem in deeply knowing the symbol and studying more about its true meaning. Hope to see the answers for next update. Thank you for sharing your blog post!

Thank you for your interest, I too hope someone solves the mystery!

Sometimes one simply needs to get away. My neighbours, amusing as they sometimes are often re- awaken in me certain ‘urges’. Urges which invariably concern the use of greased wooden poles.

Of course when I do have the opportunity to scamper off on a jolly jaunt, my ideal destination tends not to be ‘usual’.

I prefer charnel house to manor house, gin palace to Buckingham palace, Bran castle to Windsor castle, boneyard to botanic garden. You probably discern the pattern.

Therefore, fascinating as life on the strangest street in this sceptered isle may be, I thought readers might appreciate the occasional diversion further afield.

It is my intention to regale you with tales of my light-hearted cadaverous caperings into the weird, the macabre and the unusual around the UK and (sometimes) beyond.

Perhaps I may visit medieval buildings guarded by faithful gargoyles, graveyards and catacombs inhabited by the restless dead, extraordinary natural landscapes where pagan gods dwell, restaurants, pubs and hotels in unusual places, haunted by ancient denizens and hopefully run by mad chefs with mad ideas. I will not know until I get there. I can only say they will be places to replenish my essence and head off those pesky impaling urges.

Tread with me if you will, paths less well known.
