"Little" standing stones. ?
8 messages
Select a forum:
I know of quite a few lowly standing stones, some only maybe 20cm high, but in prominent positions, and close by to other known megalithic sites.

What i'm wondering, when does a standing stone become a standing stone, is there a height "barrier" for want of a better word. ?
These are not just earthfast boulders, some of them wouldn't go amiss in some of the Derbyshire circles, Barbrook 3 for instance.

Is there a cut off point for adding these little monoliths to TMA. ?

Opinions anyone.
