All Brimhem Moore is considered one of the strangest places in the entire UK. During the Victorian era dozens of strange looking stones made people assume that this site was created by the Druids, and only in the 20th century, people have finally realized that it was the result of erosion over 18,000 years. "If Brimhem could carry the plain of Salisbury "Salisbury Plain", then Stonehenge would have looked poor and miserable miniature" - someone said about this magical place.
