In #Cornwall the round rock at Men-An-Tol, near Madron, was thought to prevent and cure rheumatic ailments if one crawled naked through the stone or was pushed through by others while repeating a spell a magical number of times (usually 3 or 9).

Photographic print from a lantern slide of the Mên-an-Tol in the parish of Madron in Cornwall, dated c.1890s. The lantern slide is one of several in the possession of David H. Thomas which show some of the prehistoric monuments and settlements of Cornwall. I have the only photographic prints of the collection. #MênAnTol #Madron #Cornwall #StandingStoneSunday
