Langdean stone circle

Scheduled monument

What is recorded here

The National Heritage List for England records Langdean stone circle 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, Langdean stone circle was probably used for ceremonial or ritual purposes, as with many similar monuments of the period. Its alignment and positioning may have had astronomical or seasonal significance, though specific folklore or use remains unrecorded.

The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
