A fairy ring is a naturally occurring ring of mushrooms. They are also known as pixie’s rings, faerie circles, or elf circles. The English believed that fairy rings were where fairies came to dance and celebrate, the mushrooms of the rings were used as stools for the fairies to recuperate during the evenings festivities. 

First time I ever saw one of these things I didn’t believe it was natural. I can easily understand why people might believe they had a supernatural origin.
