“This menhir or prehistoric longstone, which was originally about 16 feet high, was known as Men Gurta. It is now called St Breock Longstone. Weighing about 16.5 tons it is still the heaviest standing stone in Cornwall.
The word menhir is a combination of two words found in the Breton language; men (stone), and hir (long).” Cornwall Heritage Trust
