The Knolls (Round Barrow(s))

Very close by there used to be a standing stone called The Row Riddy stone now long gone.

Also a few barrows have vanished over the years due to the sand quarrying industry I believe.

Blowing Stone (Standing Stone / Menhir)

Just watched a DVD called Along The Ridgeway and one of the presenters gets a loud noise out of the Blowing stone.

He blows through the very small hole on the top of the stone, after a child shouts instructions from the window of one of the cottages.

Whiteleaf Cross (Christianised Site)

Whiteleaf Cross gets a mention in the Otway and Barrett song "Louise on a horse".

Not suprising as they come from Aylesbury.
