Legend had it that five saints rested on the stone (one on each face and one on top) - the devil came along, saw them and stuck them to it. Merlin then released them but the stone is still marked where the saints were stuck.
In reality the stone is believed to have been an anvil for ore crushing and would have lain on its side. NGR: SN663403. |
