Abbeyquarter submitted by TimPrevett on 21st Apr 2011. How the context of a chambered tomb can change; this is one of the most odd settings for a megalithic monument I've ever come across!

Andle Stone (Stanton Moor) submitted by PaulM on 1st Sep 2001. The Andle Stone, near Doll Tor Stone Circle, Stanton Moor, Derbyshire GR: SK241630
The Andle Stone or Oundle Stone is a dominating outcrop of sandstone, standing alone in the middle of a field, surrounded by a dry-stone wall and a mass of rhododendrons. Approximately 5m high by 4.5m wide, the rock is supposedly carved with ancient cupmarks on the, modern graffiti, a relatively recent inscription and climbing holes on the sides.

Boskednan stone circle submitted by JimChampion on 22nd Aug 2005. The portal stones illuminated by the last rays of the setting sun. The tallest one (on the left) has a diagonal groove present on this and the opposite side. The holes that the restored stones were raised from have been covered with pegged down foliage, presumably to encourage regrowth on the bare earth.
