THE ROLLRIGHT STONES

Generally regarded as the third most important prehistoric circle in England (after Stonehenge and Avebury) the Rollright stones date back to 1500 BC. For 3500 years Rollright has kept it's secret, it is unknown why they exist. Each visitor counts a different number of stones and no one has actually confirmed the correct number! An eerie site with a mysterious past. Five miles from The Forge.
