Fieldnotes
| Visited 11.9.12 It was a bright and warm late summer’s evening, with white fluffy clouds – ideal weather for a spot of ‘old stoning’. We parked in a passing place on the minor road off the B5112 – a very quiet road. You can’t see the stone from the road and I had to find a suitable gap in the hedge. This I did and then needed to navigate my way over a barbed wire fence. The field was full of sheep and cows and it didn’t take long to spot the stone. The stone is approximately 5ft tall x 2ft wide. It is quite colourful with white, green and yellow lichen on its surface. The stone has clearly been used as a rubbing post for many years and has been worn smooth. It is a gnarled old thing and reminded me a lot of the Rollright stones. Good views of Snowdonia in the distance. Well worth seeking out. |
