Fieldnotes
| I passed this site totally by chance. I just noticed it over a hedge as I approach the clapper bridge at Delford. I took several photos with zoom lense from the road side. Looking at the stone from different angles it looks to me like a fallen Quoit stone, other stones scattered around it would add weight to this theory. Looking on the map I found that the neighbouring farms go by the names Penquite, South Penquite, Best Penquite, Higher Penquite and Lower Penquite "Pen" = Hill or Head "quite" could be a corruption of quoit hence: Quoit on the hill Anyone agree?
