The National Monument Record suggests this isn't a prehistoric standing stone.
Standing stone bearing the date 1721 with a cross, the only other inscription is the date 1778. The stone was erected in 1721.
However, the record is categorised as Period: Unknown which suggests there may be some ambiguity.
