Brisworthy stone circle is likely from the Late Neolithic or Early Bronze Age, based on the typical dating of such monuments in the region. Stone circles like this were often used for ceremonial or ritual purposes and may have astronomical alignments, though specific folklore or use remains unrecorded.
