Standing stone

What is recorded here

Collapsed standing stone situated 50m SE of a bowl-barrow (TS053-016001-) atop a NW-SE ridge, in pasture. There are extensive views in all directions. A long recumbent limestone pillar (L 3.05m; 0.5m x 0.47m), rectangular in plan, lying N-S with a sloping top. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 26 August 2011
Dated to the Neolithic or early Bronze Age, this standing stone likely formed part of a ritual or funerary landscape associated with the nearby bowl barrow. Its collapse and orientation suggest it may have marked a territorial boundary or celestial alignment, though specific folklore or symbolic meaning is not recorded.
