The National Monuments Service's description
In gently undulating pastureland. Indicated and named 'Stone' in Roman script on the 1838 edition of the OS 6-inch map. No visible surface trace survives. A limekiln has been built here. The landowner did not recall there being a monument here. Possibly the site of a standing stone.
