(NR 5504 7188) ?Standing stone.
Information from RCAHMS to OS.
See also NR57SE 3 and NR57SW 3.
This upright stone at NR 5505 7192 is roughly semi-circular in plan, standing 0.9m high by 0.8m by 0.6m. This lack of height, coupled with its irregularity, prevents certain classification as a standing stone erected in antiquity. It could equally be a marker of some description.
Surveyed at 1/10,000.
Visited by OS (J B) 4 May 1978.
Field Visit (May 1975)
