Antiquarian Chaps and Chapesses,

Click on the link below, and page down to the photos of the stone circle of Elva Plain. Does the close-up of the marked stone remind anyone of the Polissoir Stone near Avebury?

If so, it's remarkably understated. I wonder of some of the Great Langdale stone axes were sharpened there on their way to Scotland.

Can anyone throw any light on it?

Odd that it hasn't been noted before , that I know of . Could be plough marks but there are rocks that have similar markings in a secure Late Neolithic - E.B.A . setting as well as a collection of more difficult to date and called Arrow stones in Wales .

To all,

Bloody 'ell indeed. I also find it hard to comprehend the lack of recognition afforded to this site. I've a mate who lives nearby, who I will ask.

Thanks,
TE.
