What is recorded here

Marked only on the 1940 ed. of the OS 6-inch map, and situated towards the bottom of a N-facing slope with a slight NW-SE stream in its valley c. 80m to the SW. It was described in 1940 as having a square cross-section at the base (dims c. 0.4m x c. 0.4m; H c. 1.6m) that swelled above the ground line but which was damaged at the top where a large section (H c. 0.6m) appears to have been removed (OSFM). It was not visible at ground level in 1987. Michael Moore Date of upload/revision: 21 November 2012
