Kingston Russell Stone Circle
Kingston Russell Stone Circle () is a prehistoric stone circle between Abbotsbury and Littlebredy, in Dorset, England.
==Description==
Kingston Russell Stone Circle is located on a hilltop overlooking Abbotsbury and the sea.〔(History and Research: Kingston Russell Stone Circle ), English Heritage, 26 August 2014〕 The historic house of Kingston Russell is about a mile to the north. The ruined burial chamber known as The Grey Mare and her Colts is a short distance to the southeast.〔
The stone circle consists of eighteen fallen conglomerate or sarsen stones situated on a chalk ridge. Some of the stones are broken, and it is impossible to tell which fragments are bases and which were originally upper parts.〔 The stones vary in size from 2 metres by 0.5 metres to 1 metre by 0.3 metres.〔 The stones are arranged in an irregular oval with a diameter ranging from 18 to 27 metres.〔 Many of the stones may not be in their original positions.〔
In 1815 it was recorded that one stone on the south side was still standing, the rest having fallen by that date.〔 The site is now in the care of English Heritage.
