I thought the legend said it came from Ireland.

There’s a tidbit in the Arthur stories (pretty much all of which date from the middle ages) that Merlin swiped one, some, or all the stones from Ireland. Mary Stewart uses that in “The Crystal Cave”, referencing the much older legend that Apollo raised the walls of Troy using music. :^)
