What is recorded here
The National Heritage List for England records Standing stone on Brockrigg known as Wade's Stone, 420m south east of Brockrigg Farm as a scheduled monument. The saved point comes from the centre supplied by the official record. Listing does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Probably dating to the Bronze Age, Wade's Stone may have functioned as a territorial marker or ceremonial site. Local tradition sometimes associates such stones with historical or legendary figures, though specific folklore connected to this example is not widely recorded.
The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
