What is recorded here
The National Heritage List for England records Low Kingate concentric 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, the Low Kingate concentric stone circle is thought to have had ceremonial or ritual significance, as with many similar stone circles in Britain. Its concentric design may reflect astronomical alignments or social organization of its builders.
The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
