There is two types of Standing Stones and Stone Circles.
Celtic Druids and the Tuatha de Dannan
The most ancient and impressive ones (like that of Stonehenge) were built in the prehistoric times by the gods. They are always magical, though their magic may operate only rarely when the appropriate conditions are met. Those ancient structures are almost always related to The Otherworld. They generally are gates, or places where creatures from The Otherworld may be summoned more easily.
The smaller standing stones and stone circles are erected by the druids, usually in their nemetons (sacred places). They usually are created magical (with the Craft Wondrous Item feat), as protection devices (to protect the sanctuary), or to enhance divination magic and count the passing of days, seasons, etc.
