What is recorded here

In Cartron Glebe, a rectangular conglomerate stone rises 1.2 metres, tapering slightly from northeast to southwest. It has no visible packing stones at its base, suggesting deep burial rather than surface assembly. The clean geometry and deliberate alignment hint at human intention, yet no tradition or date claims the act.
