Description - This group consists of the stone circle (The King's Men), a standing stone (The King Stone), 73m/239ft NE) and a burial chamber (The Whispering Knights, 357m/0.2mi ESE).  there are about 77 lumps of weathered limestone around the 31.4m (103ft) perfect circle, some nearly lost in the short turf.
In 18th century, the antiquarian William Stukeley described this circle as The greatest Antiquity we have yet seen... corroded like worm-eaten wood by the harsh Jaws of Time. Early in the 17th century only 26 stones were standing; in 1882 there was a major re-erection of the remaining stones. Most of them are under 1.2m (4ft) high and they look like huge rotted teeth.
There is no other stone ring near the Rollright Stones, but the circle lies in an area of henges. Its name has nothing to do with any supernatural rotation of the stones, but it may derive from Hrolla-landriht as early spellings like Rollindricht suggest, the land belonging to Hrolla.
