Standing Stone / Menhir

postman Jul 2, 2006

A beautiful peaceful morning ,only bleating lambs , singing birds and running water broke the silence .Park by the many arched bridge and follow the footpath west ,below the rail track over three gates and under the track,turn right over fence and wow what a stone ,over 8 ft tall and covered in quartz seams .A powerful place despite the railway track which is invisible but loud when trains pass
