Story summary
  • Underground power cables now run beneath the Nine Stones circle after England’s high-voltage pylons were buried in 2022.
  • The circle sits beside the A35, protected by slim iron railings.
  • A seasonal winter bourne floods the road for about six months each year.
  • The stones, ranging from knee-high to 1.5 m, include puddingstone with pink-tinged flint similar to nearby Valley of Stones boulders.
