Fieldnotes
| I have provisionally posted this as a carved stone although the last time it was really looked at, in the 1920s, the general concensus was that the marks were natural. However I have not seen marks in Sarsen that look quite like these. People with more experience of rock art than I may have other opinions. If the marks are truly man-made they are rare in this part of the country. The picture quality is explained in the caption. Access Park on verge at T junction, cross road to field gate and the stone is in the hollow to your right about 50M away. Tussocky grass. (The hollow in which it lies is one of the quarry pits used by the Romans to construct the Chute Causeway, a diversion on the Winchester-Cirencester road to avoid the steep valley to the North) |
