 he brought out of Ireland ; and indeed the wiser sort rather marvell at 

 than tell why or how they were set there."

In this work (now long out of print) "Wiltshire is described as consisting of 

 two well-marked regions : — (a) the undulating table-land formed by the 

 chalk in the south and east, comprising two-thirds of the county ; and 

 {h) the Oolitic clays and limestones of the north-west area, occupying the 

 remaining one-third. The sarsens or Druid sandstones found in patches 

 upon the chalk are the relics of Tertiary strata (probably the Bagshot 

 Sands) which once stretched much further west than they do now. These 

 sarsens form the prehistoric stone circles at Avebury and Stonehenge ; 

 although the latter monument also includes some igneous rocks — the 

 so-called "greenstones," "blue-stones," or " foreign " rocks, which may 

 have been brought from Wales, etc. \_See pp. 282 — 291.]

Includes notes on moving large blocks of stone. As to the " dolmens and 

 menhirs, rude unhewn stones often weighing from 30 to 40 tons, . . . 

 to transport and erect such rude masses required little mechanical 

 knowledge or skill, and the operation has excited more wonder than it 

 deserves."
