Pictures of The Nine Maidens Stone Circle

Submitted by Tony Dunlop(11th July 2007)

Nine Maidens stone circle at Belstone Tor on Dartmoor, Devon

This stone circle dates from the Bronze age and surrounds a burial mound or kistvaen. There are at least 16 standing stones; there are several instances of the use of 'Nine Maidens' as a name for a stone circle in the UK, regardless of the actual number of stones.
