Visit Notes

Sunday, 4th November 2007

This stone lies where it was discovered in a field boundary. There are 12 or 13 very faint cup marks on its exposed surface.

Presumably, it was moved to its current location when the field system was established. There are several outcrops of rock nearby, none of which appear to be decorated.
