A Row Of Maidens, the Nine Maidens on St Breock Downs

A view along the Nine Maidens, a row of neolithic standing stones at the edge of the St Breock Downs in Cornwall. Local legend has it that the nine maidens were turned to stone as punishment for dancing on a Sunday. They are aligned to the northeast towards a distant stone called The Fiddler who is said to be the petrified remains of the musician who played for the dancers.
