Està envoltada per la rasa d'Heelstone o Heelstone Ditch. Certs mites i llegendes del diable colpejant un "taló de frare" amb una pedra van donar lloc al seu nom excèntric, 'pedra de taló' (traducció al català de Heel Stone). Només en les últimes tres dècades els científics han utilitzat de manera constant el nom Heel Stone. (ca)

Myths and legends of the Devil striking a "Friar's Heel" with a stone resulted in its eccentric name, Heel Stone. Some claim "Friar's Heel" is a corruption of "Freyja's He-ol" or "Freyja Sul", from the Nordic goddess Freyja and (allegedly) the Welsh words for "way" and "Sunday" respectively. It is doubtful whether any prehistoric standing stone has experienced as many name changes and interpretations. Only in the past three decades have scientists used the name Heel Stone consistently.
