Chequers Ring is a ring of standing stones located in Buckinghamshire, England. It consists of twenty-four large stones, forming a circle of about 10 meters in diameter. The stones average in height of 1.4 meters. It is believed that the Chequers Ring dates back to the Bronze Age, around 3000-1000 BCE. Archaeologists believe that it served as a ceremonial site or as a place for astronomical observation. The Chequers Ring is a protected historical site, and visitors are permitted to walk around the stones but not touch them. It is located near the country house of the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, which is known as Chequers, and the name of the ring is believed to have originated from this connection.
