"The special fine-grained stone used to make the Langdale axes doesn't only outcrop at that remote spot, but nonetheless, that was the place selected. In simple, practicle terms, it doesn't make sense - any more than it makes sense to transport huge bluestone rocks from the Preseli Hills of South Wales to Stonehenge; but that's what happened. Strangely, there is a link between the two places: they are both high and remote, with spectacular views, but more than that, the rock itself is sharp, angular, strangely columnar and most artificial in appearance. It would not take an overactive imagination to see these rocky outcrops as something removed from this world, perhaps assembled or created by a race altogether more powerful beings than us".
