The Cursing Stones, located nearby, are a collection of round boulders with cup marks and grooves, some of which are said to have been used for cursing or blessing purposes. According to local folklore, these stones were believed to possess magical properties, and visitors would come to them to seek protection, healing, or to place a curse on their enemies. This photograph offers a unique and captivating view of these ancient relics, transporting us back in time to a period when the natural world was intertwined with spiritual beliefs and practices.
