The Stripple stones is a henge and stone circle located on the south slope of Hawk's Tor, Blisland, 10 kilometres north northeast of Bodmin on Bodmin Moor in Cornwall, England, UK.
First recorded by this name during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I the circle has been described by William Lukis as "the most interesting and remarkable monument in the county". It is surrounded by a circular ditch and vallum that forms a level platform 175 feet in diameter. The circle is 145.5 feet in diameter with four granite standing stones and several fallen. In the centre is a giant fallen menhir approximately 12 feet long and 5 feet at the widest point, split in three places. Lukis suggested that with an average spacing of 12 feet , there would have been thirty seven original stones, whilst Aubrey Burl suggested only twenty eight.
