Hi Josie -

Welcome to TMA! I loved your images of Meanwood's Witch's Stone. Excellent pikkies. Hope you're encouraged to send more of other sites in. I've recently relocated the legendary Grey Stone monolith - once at Kirkstall, now near the city-end of Burley Road.

You might wanna be the first person to get some images of it if you live round Leeds.

Best wishes - Paulus

The profile of the stone is quite near to that of an archetypal witch's hat, so perhaps that is how the name came about. In one of the pictures there is what-seems-to-be another stone, about a hundred yards away (probably it is just a tree). Also the groove down one face of the menhir may have been carved in an act of symbolic art which we no longer understand ...

Eyup Paulus!

Is this the same stone (near the Rangers office) I sent you a pic of, a coupla years back?

I recall you saying back then that you weren't sure where the Witch's Stone was. Has some new info turned up to show where it resides?

Cheers

Dave
