Standing stone

What is recorded here

That is the information available in the requested source.
In level pasture, immediately N of farm access road. Upright stone (H 1.2m) of limestone is roughly rectangular in plan (L 0.86m; T 0.46m) and elevation; long-axis NNW-SSE. Deep fissures and perforation in centre of elevation caused by natural erosion. In small depression probably caused by cattle erosion. Compiled by: Denis Power Date of upload: 25 November 2013
Probably dates to the Late Neolithic or Bronze Age, given the typical form and material of such standing stones in the region. The central perforation may have had ritual or astronomical significance, or could be the result of later human or natural activity.

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