What is recorded here
According to local information, a mass-rock was formerly located in this field c. 95m to the WNW (see GA042-203---- for its original location). It consisted of a piece of undressed sandstone (H 0.9m; Wth 0.5m) which was inscribed with a cross. It was surrounded by bushes and stones. On inspection in April 1984 no visible surface trace survived. The field was bulldozed in the 1970s during land-clearance works. The resulting spoil was packed against the field boundary to the SE. It is possible that the mass-rock may have been in this spoil but a search of it failed to locate it.
