Transporting heavy weight, sends giants to move megaliths (8,6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

standing stones

'megaliths' is the definition.
(I know this)

'transporting heavy weight sends giants to move' is the wordplay.
'transporting' indicates putting letters inside.
'heavy weight' becomes 'ton' (a ton weighs a lot).
'to move' indicates an anagram.
'sends'+'giants'='sendsgiants'
'sendsgiants' with letters rearranged gives 'standingses'.
'ton' inserted into 'standingses' is 'STANDING STONES'.

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
