Can't write too much at the mo..off to work. But very interested in this as Moorswater is on my patch and Granite from there is another fave. Will look through my notes later..all I can think of is the monolith from Cheesewring Quarry taken to the Grt Exhibition in 1851. It now stands in a field outside Stroud. The granite yard at Moorswater was run by the same firm that quarried at Cheesewring...so chances are that is where the stone is from

more later....
