The Devil's Quoits (grid reference SP411048) is a henge and stone circle to the south of the village of Stanton Harcourt in Oxfordshire, England.
Tradition has it that the Devil and his opponent were sitting on the top of Wytham Hill, several miles away, when they played their game – presumably on or near the site of the Swinford Farm trig point[2] which provides a commanding view across the Thames Valley.
[4] The henge ditch enclosed a circular area up to 120 metres (400') across, with opposed entrances facing almost due east and west.
[5] The henge had survived as a slight earthwork until World War II, when it was levelled in advance of runway construction.
[6] The earthworks were restored to the approximate condition they had at the beginning of Roman times, when the ditch began to be filled with ploughsoil and the bank was eroding.
