Nine Maidens Stone Circle

Stone circle a short walk to the south west of Belstone. Beautiful location which has been geo-located on the Google map provided.

Why 'Nine Maidens'? A group of young women were caught dancing on a Sunday and turned to stone. See Bowerman's Nose for a similar legend, this time with a hunter and his dogs.

We'd recommend passing the Nine Maidens Stone Circle on the Belstone to Rowtor Walk (Medium).
