What is recorded here

Not marked on 1842 and 1904 OS 6-inch maps. In pasture, on gentle NE-facing slope. Stone (L 2.7m; 1m x c. 0.4m) is prostrate and almost covered by heavy overgrowth. In same position when recorded by Bowman (1934, 329), who noted number of grooved lines on one side; not now visible, probably due to overgrowth.
