Borrowed from Welsh cromlech, from crom (the feminine singular form of crwm (“bent, bowed, curved”), ultimately from Proto-Celtic *krumbos (“bent, crooked”) and Proto-Germanic *krumpaz (“bent, crooked, curved”); further etymology uncertain) + llech (“flagstone, slab of stone”) (ultimately from Proto-Celtic *ɸlikkā (“(flat) stone”) and Proto-Indo-European *pleh₂- (“flat”)). Sense 1 (“stone circle”) is from Breton cromlec'h, krommlec'h probably from Welsh cromlech: see above.
