Small stone circle on White Hag is a Bronze Age ceremonial monument located in Westmorland in the English Lake District region. The circle comprises a modest arrangement of standing stones typical of upland ritual sites constructed during the second millennium BCE. Such stone circles served important communal and possibly calendrical functions within Bronze Age societies, though the specific ritual practices associated with this particular example remain uncertain. The monument survives as a testament to prehistoric settlement and ceremonial activity in the upland areas of northern England during the Bronze Age period.
