Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The name "The Pipers Stones" refers to a folklore tradition that people caught dancing on a Sunday were turned to stone. The separate stone in the north-east represented the piper. However the stone circle far predates Christianity and probably dates from the later Bronze Age. Sixteen granite boulders remain out of a probably twenty-nine, only five in their original positions.
