The Hele Stone, or Friar's Heel 

This "The Hele Stone, or Friar's Heel, Stonehenge (8) Salisbury Plain" was printed in Belgium for Tomkins & Barret, Swindon as part of "The Famous Series"

The text reads: A legend states when the Devil was busy erecting Stonehenge, he said no one would ever know how it was done. This was overheard by a Friar lurking near by and he incautiously replied in the Wiltshire dialect "That's more than thee can tell" and fled for his life. The Devil, catching up an odd stone, flung it after the Friar and hit him on the heel.
