English: Swinside, which is also known as Sunkenkirk and Swineshead, is a stone circle lying beside Swinside Fell, part of Black Combe in southern Cumbria, North West England. One of around 1,300 recorded stone circles in the British Isles and Brittany, it was constructed as a part of a megalithic tradition that lasted from 3,300 to 900 BCE, during what archaeologists categorise as the Late Neolithic and Early Bronze Ages.
Español: Swinside es una aldea sita junto a Swinside Fell, parte de Black Combe, en el sur de Cumbria, Inglaterra. Se destaca por el círculo de piedras de Swinside que se encuentra cerca, un círculo casi perfecto de poco menos de 29 metros de diámetro. El círculo es también conocido como Sunkenkirk, a raíz de la leyenda que dice que el diablo hizo que las piedras se hundieran en el suelo para evitar su utilización para construir los cimientos de una iglesia.
