The Devil's Quoits is a reconstructed stone circle henge, originally dating from the late Neolithic period, probably around 2900-2600BC. The large site with a 115m diameter earth bank, internal 2m deep ditch and 75m diameter stone circle is likely to have been of great significance and will have been visible from the Ridgeway, Britain's oldest road. The stone circle consisted of 28 conglomerate stones, with one additional stone standing slightly offset to the south.
It is a truly remarkable site; transporting you back to a time where people travelled along the Windrush Valley from its headwaters to its confluence with the Thames at Devil's Quoits and further downstream to the Big Rings at Dorchester on the Thames. Many hundreds of people would have gathered within the site, observing from the banks and participating in rituals in the centre.
