Druid Stone
The Druid or Altar Stone of Blidworth, Nottinghamshire, UK. This random natural monolith (a glacial erratic) has a man-made hole cut through its centre, said to align with the rising sun at the spring equinox. In a tradition common to other ‘holed stones’ in the UK and Ireland, it is supposed to have healing powers for those who pass through it, symbolising the rebirth of the sick.
