The farm was being renovated so no one to ask, so I went into the field anyway. The stone was a bit over grown with nettles and the like but you could get an appreciation of it.

Sandstone stone in field of wheat.
Permission asked for at farm - nice woman had an idea we might be looking for stone...
First impressions pretty dissappointing, but good cup marks - well 3 at least that I thought... spotted small in one corner and as ever the views are pretty.

This stone is a block of sandstone, around 4-1/2 feet tall, oriented approximately E-W. There are no visible cup marks on it.
