Standing stone

What is recorded here

On the external bank in the W of a possible enclosure, on a NW-facing slope in rolling pasture. Conglomerate stone (H 1m; Wth. 0.42-0.45m) leaning to W.
Probably dating to the Late Neolithic or Bronze Age, this standing stone may have marked a boundary or held ritual significance within a wider landscape of ceremonial or domestic activity. Its placement on an enclosure bank suggests a possible role in defining or reinforcing territorial or spiritual boundaries.
