Standing stone

What is recorded here

On a steep N-facing slope, in pasture. Upright conglomerate stone (1.25m x 0.75m; H 1.65m), rectangular in plan and oriented NW-SE. There are small packing stones around base. An enclosure (TS067-068----) lies c. 185m to the NW. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 26 August 2011
Probably dates to the Neolithic or Bronze Age, given its form and context. It may have had a ritual or territorial function, possibly linked to the nearby enclosure.

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
