Description:The Old Stafford Society was a local history group, founded in 1925. They organised many visits to places of historical interest.

Members of the Society are gathered by these two ancient standing stones, known as the Devil’s Ring and Finger. They are probably Neolithic in origin, and may have formed part of a megalithic chambered tomb. They are both about 6 feet (1.8m) tall, and have been built into a wall on the edge of the Oakley Hall estate, near Mucklestone. They are not in their original position. Please contact us if you recognise anyone in the photograph.
