Overview

Bronze Age standing stones shrouded in mystery

Very little is known about the origins of this pair of standing stones. Erected during the Bronze Age, they stand roughly 10ft/3m high and 11ft/3.3m apart. One persistent myth says that they were once part of a larger stone circle and that a cist (or grave) containing bones, arrowheads and spearheads was found between them, but no evidence has ever emerged to substantiate this story.
