| Funnily enough, June, your post made me think of something I read recently. "An old woman in the village informed Mr. Allen, who published his History of Yorkshire in 1829, that she could remember the remains of a similar block of stone, which was situated some yards to the east of the present obelisk." That could be sheer piffle though. That's from a footnote in this https://archive.org/stream/his[...]g00whelgoog#page/n502/mode/2up but it's not in Mr Allen's book though, at least that I can find. You'd think a second stone would stick in folklore. But maybe people actually have short memories. But wouldn't it be written down somewhere? Or the place even be called Rud stones?! https://archive.org/stream/ane[...]e/n137/mode/2up/search/rudston Reply | with quote |  15th February 2017ce 21:00 In reply to: Re: Large stones (tjj) |
