The Rollright Stones

The Rollright Stones, near the Oxfordshire and Warwickshire border, include three ancient monuments: the King’s Men stone circle, the Whispering Knights burial chamber, and the King Stone. Each monument dates back to different periods of the Neolithic and Bronze Age, offering a glimpse into prehistoric life. You can explore myths and legends, such as tales of kings and knights, while enjoying the beautiful countryside.

The King’s Men circle comes alive at night, with stones whispering to each other. The Whispering Knights, an early Neolithic burial chamber, evoke images of ancient rituals. Historians still debate the purpose of the solitary King Stone. The Rollright Stones provide a window into ancient history and folklore, making it a must-visit for history enthusiasts and casual visitors alike.
