Long Meg and her Daughters
Long Meg and her Daughters – Long Meg is red sandstone and supposedly named after a local witch whose profile you can see on the stone from the right angle and is about 4 metres high.
A legend is that the stones were a coven of witches who were turned to stone by a warlock.
Dating from the Bronze Age, this is England’s third largest stone circle that consists of a huge ring (the Daughters) of more than 60 stones and Long Meg, a 12-foot-high block of red sandstone.
