Such a shame that this was destroyed.

A Welsh version of Auchmaliddie near Aikey Brae :-(
Similarly wrecked. The stone isn't quartz though!
whitewash? lichen? it looks a different colour on the sides?
Same questions as Rhiannon sir.
I don't know, I think it's just the colour of the stone! Sorry my basic geology is failing here, I don't know what kind of stone it is. The darker side is probably due to the stone being broken, so the side hasn't been exposed to the elements.
