Here's another ( http://www.themodernantiquarian.com/site/7185 ). There was another a few miles away, on the roadside, that was uprooted and removed in the early 1980's and another in the same vicinity that has just three stones - lying flat - with a tiny cairn very close by, that's not listed here. The Whitehouse Four-poster also has cairns associated with it but the view there is closed to the south but extremely wide open to the north. Almost entirely unexplored stones, right by the roadside, in Cumbria !
Sorry SL, not convinced by that one at all. My 1st thoughts looking at the image were it’s an old quarry, judging by the topography, unusual position & vegetation. A quick look at the Magic map, using your grid ref shows ‘disused quarries & mines’ in the immediate vicinity. I’ll put my dosh on those just being stones from the quarry.
