Fodor's Expert Review Rollright Stones
Moreton-in-Marsh
Ruins
A reminder of the ancient civilizations of Britain can be seen about 8 miles east of Moreton, where three stone groups occupy a high position on the wolds. The site lacks the grandeur of Stonehenge and Avebury, but has a peace and beauty of its own and is almost as important. Legend gives the stones, dating from before 1500 BC, the names of the King's Men, the King Stone, and the Whispering Knights.
