Megaliths (or standing stones) can be single vertical stones, complete or incomplete circles. Many of the standing stones in Wales date from the Neolithic period (circa 4000 BC) and this is fairly common for megaliths in Europe.

I have been told about 3 stones called Ifre Pentre. I have not found any info on them but have been told I must go there. It seems they may be near Bath???
