The Hurkling Stone
Date Added: 19th Aug 2013
Site Type: Marker Stone
Country: England (Derbyshire)
Visited: Yes on 1st Mar 2010
The Hurkling Stone submitted by MartinRS on 9th Aug 2013. The Hurkling Stone on White Edge Moor. A prominent rock outcrop on White Edge itself is often mistaken for the Hurkling Stone probably because the letter 'H' is near to this stone on OS 1:25 000 maps. The Hurkling Stone is in fact a boundary marker and can be found next to the letter 'e' in stone on these maps.

Site Type: Stone Circle
Country: England (Derbyshire)

Stoke Flat submitted by PaulM on 1st Sep 2001. Froggatt Edge stone circle (aka Stoke Flat), Derbyshire GR: SK249768
Froggatt Edge stone circle is set on a flat shelf, overlooking the picturesque Derwent Valley.
Often referred to as Stoke Flat, the site is complex, though now sadly quite ruined. It consists of an embanked stone circle with two entrances exactly opposite, to the north-north-west and south-south-east. Traces of dry-stone walling in the northern entrance suggest that it may have been deliberately blocked at some time in p...

Nine Ladies is a typical Derbyshire circle consisting of nine visible small standing stones embedded in a grassed over stone rubble bank approximately 11.5m by 10.5m in diameter. The site is the most popular in Derbyshire and much in the media spotlight due to quarrying plans in the area.
The stones are all composed of local millstone grit and none are taller than one metre in height. The bank has now all but disappea...

Site Type: Ancient Temple
Country: England (Yorkshire (South))

Harrys Stone submitted by MartinRS on 16th Aug 2013. The site of Oxdale Lodge, by the side of Houndkirk Road. Fairbank's 18th Century map shows Oxdale Lodge to be the location of Harrys Stone. According to Addy, a 19th Century historian, 'Harry is the Anglo-Saxon hearh or hearg (pronounced harry), meaning a temple or idol.' Harrys Stone had gone by the time Addy visited this site in the 1880's. Martin Speck. (CC BY-SA 2.0)
