Castlerigg Stone Circle Stones

Castlerigg Stone Circle Stones

The Neolithic stone circles also differ from those of the later Bronze Age in their generally larger size and often flattened circular shape – as is found at Castlerigg – comprising an open circle of many large stones. Castlerigg is about 97½ ft in diameter, and formerly comprised 42 stones. There are now only 38 stones, which vary in height from 3¼ ft to 7½ ft.
