I couldn't get very close to this stone due to some surprisingly early crops in the field, but it's not hard to see from the road as it stands on top of a small knoll.

It would appear to be about 1.5m tall and shaped like a rough brick standing on end. It has a huge crack running diagonally across it, so it looks like it has been stuck back together at some point.
