What is recorded here

The National Heritage List for England records Two standing stones on Crousa Common, 890m WSW of Chywoone 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, these standing stones may have served as markers for territorial boundaries, ceremonial alignments, or astronomical observations. Local folklore sometimes associates such stones with ancient giants or protective charms against evil spirits.

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