Well, don’t look at me. I have an alibi.
We used to go drinking there in my wayward youth. I was interested in History even then and the damned thing was identical to one of those Neolithic constructs scattered around Europe.
For those interested there was, by rumor, a lot of virginity sacrificed on that formation. I will post a link.
