Tout Quarry Sculpture Park Stone Circle
Date Added: 19th Sep 2021
Site Type: Modern Stone Circle etc
Country: England (Dorset)
Visited: Yes
Tout Quarry Sculpture Park Stone Circle submitted by TimPrevett on 14th Aug 2017. 12/08/17
This circle (more of a 'cove' of stones, I suggest) at Portland's Tout Quarry Sculpture Park was officially opened on June 21st 2017. It's just on the south side of the arterial route at the top of north end of Portland, parking at The Heights Hotel just across the road, or if that's full, parking around the corner to the north of the hotel near The Olympic Rings monument. Not to be confused with "The Circle of Stones" further into the sculpture park.

Lanhill submitted by thecaptain on 16th Apr 2004. Lanhill, Chambered Tomb, near Chippenham, Wiltshire, ST877747
At the centre of the southern side is a rock lined chamber, about 2½ m in length by 1½ metres in width, which has obviously been restored, as the roof is now supported on steel bars. The opening to the chamber has a curved, dry stone walled forecourt, and there is a blocking stone across the opening.

Log Text: Lovely little spot park quarter of a mile down the road in the layby and walked through the top of the field. The traffic on the road is fast! Had to hop over a barbed wire fency but it's a lovely spot worth the effort.

Gray Hill stone row submitted by TheCaptain on 2nd Apr 2004. Grey Hill or Gray Hill Stone Row, Monmouthshire, ST437936 - ST438935
Looking to the south down the hill, is a fairly reasonable alignment of 5 stones in a row, which sort of joins between the jumbled stone remains on the top of the hill and the stone circle.

Log Text: Not for the faint hearted... the hill is steep! The tallest standing stone is the easiest to spot. The circle is 45 meters to the south.
