The Longstones

The Longstones


Little Salkeld, United Kingdom (GB)
The Longstones are two standing stones, one of which is the remains of a prehistoric 'cove' of standing stones in Wiltshire in the UK. Two stones are visible, known as 'Adam' and 'Eve' although the latter is more likely to have been a stone that formed part of the Beckhampton Avenue that connected with Avebury (the site of Stonehenge). Adam is the larger of the two stones, weighing an estimated 62 tons, and along with three others formed a four-sided cove.
