Rollright Stones
Rollright Stones
Traditionally believed to be a monarch and his courtiers petrified by a witch, the Rollright Stones are a set standing stones which consist of three groups: the King's Men stone circle; the Whispering Knights burial chamber; and the single King Stone.
They span nearly 2,000 years of Neolithic and Bronze Age development.
In Spring 2015 the Rollright Stones was awarded a stargazing award in recognition of its views of the Milky Way due to its 'dark sky'.
