Summary
| Description |
English: The Four Kings Megalithic stone circle around 12 foot in circumference. Local legend tells "There was a great battle fought here, and four kings were killed. The Four Stones were set up over their graves" (Kington Workhouse, 1908.). In WH Howse's 'Radnorshire' of 1949, the author mentions that at the time of writing many farmers still felt in awe of the stones. The hay was left unmown around them and some people avoided going near them after dark. |
