Cadw's description
Location
About 50m E of Cwmcarvan Court, on the S side of the drive, between the N end of the barn on that side and a former stable building on the opposite side.
History
Probably late C18 or early C19.
Exterior
A double-ended sandstone monolith set parallel to the drive, with 4 steps at each end.
Reason for designation
Included for group value with the house and barn, and for its historical associations with the activities of the stewards of the Beaufort estate.
