Devil's Arrows: Ancient builders hauled 55k-lb stones 11 miles for UK stone row

Automated excerpt

Ancient builders hauled enormous 25-tonne (55,000-pound) stones across at least 18 kilometers (11 miles) to create Britain's tallest surviving prehistoric stone row, according to new research into the iconic Devil's Arrows.

The results matched the Devil's Arrows to Brimham Rocks.
