Nine Maidens stone circle at Belstone Tor on Dartmoor, Devon

This stone circle dates from the Bronze age and surrounds a burial mound or kistvaen. There are at least 16 standing stones; there are several instances of the use of 'Nine Maidens' as a name for a stone circle in the UK, regardless of the actual number of stones.
