Description
NAR SH39SE6

A standing stone or erect slab, set upon a low ridge. The stone is 2.6m high, 1.5m wide and 0.25-0.3m thick.
Stones such as this may be ancient ritual or ceremonial monuments, perhaps most likely to be Bronze Age. However, neither a more recent date nor a more mundane role, can be rulled out.
