Hi Folks,

long time no post. If anyone has any info or folklore relating to the Cock Crowing Stone on Meltham Moor (not 'Growing' as some people have misread it!), I'd be very interested to hear it, as I can't find much about it.

Cheers,

Andy

I think the usual thing is that they turn round when the cock crows? or sometimes they wander off for a drink. Probably at midsummer eh. I'll keep a look out if you like. For some information that is. I guess there's christian stuff about cocks crowing too (maybe hence the cross in your photo?) and not to mention all sorts of other local folklore?

Also judging by the picture I'd say the G was an attempt at humour.?

Welcome back by the way!

(oh and much as I love the seals off Blakeney point, I'm not sure that's where you meant to put the stone... at least, that's where the inline map is showing it at the moment)
