What is recorded here
The National Heritage List for England records Stone circle 800m east of Wetheriggs Pottery 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.
Probably dating to the Late Neolithic or Early Bronze Age, stone circles like this were likely used for ceremonial, ritual, or astronomical purposes. Little specific folklore is recorded for this site, though such monuments often held spiritual or communal significance in prehistoric societies.
The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
