What is recorded here
The National Heritage List for England records Embanked small stone circle at Harker Mires on Harkerside Moor as a scheduled monument. The saved point comes from the centre supplied by the official record. Listing does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Likely dating to the Late Neolithic or Early Bronze Age, this embanked stone circle may have been used for ritual or ceremonial purposes, as suggested by the positioning and arrangement of such monuments in the British Isles. No specific folklore is recorded, but it reflects broader prehistoric traditions of stone circle construction.
