Brigantia
Brigantia is the Goddess of the Brigantes, a tribe known simply as the “Great Tribe,” just as Brigantia is the “Great Queen”. She is the Goddess of the land, the spring time, and the energy of new growth.
She is the Goddess of the bulbs that push through frost and snow and flower regardless.
She is the Goddess of the new born lambs and the very first ewe’s milk of the year. These are the signs that the darkest days of the year are over and the light is beginning to dominate.

Having reached the summit of Little Ingleborough, it is not difficult to move onto the slightly higher summit of Ingleborough. On top of this was thought to be an Iron Age Hillfort, although recent excavation evidences a more likely ritual ceremonial ground.
