Grey Yauds stone circle is a prehistoric ceremonial monument located in Cumberland, England. The circle comprises a ring of standing stones arranged in a roughly circular formation, characteristic of Bronze Age ritual landscapes in northern Britain. Like many stone circles of its period, it likely served functions connected to ceremonial gatherings, astronomical observation, or burial practices during the Bronze Age, though precise dating and original purposes remain matters of archaeological interpretation. The monument survives as a significant archaeological record of prehistoric settlement and religious practice in the Lake District region.
