Mayburgh Henge

Mayburgh Henge is a large late Neolithic or early Bronze Age monument near Eamont Bridge in Cumbria, England, dating to approximately 2500 BC. The massive circular bank, built entirely of river cobbles without a ditch, encloses a central area about 100 m in diameter and rises up to 3 m high. A single standing stone nearly 3 m tall survives at the centre, the remnant of an original group of eight stones recorded in the 18th century. Located 400 m from King Arthur's Round Table henge and near the confluence of the Rivers Eamont and Lowther, it may have served as a trade centre on the Neolithic Langdale stone axe route. It is a Scheduled Ancient Monument in the care of English Heritage.
