Here's a good one - http://www.lundyisleofavalon.co.uk/lundy/ktrock.htm - the templars (inc. simon) were 'brothers in arms' to the st john knights hospitallers (of Bolton). One of their heads (carved) was stolen two days ago from Rivington Barn. Medieval perhaps, but topical, with the Dan Brown court case. The Templars were expelled in 1308 for worshipping 'heads', amongst other stuff.

Rocks with faces are always crumbling. But then we're so good at seeing faces that we'd probably see one in the new formation anyway. So although we might not see the same faces as people did hundreds or thousands of years ago, it's the same thing really. They've got a whole menagerie at Brimham Rocks, I believe.
