Folklore

Wergins Stone
Standing Stone / Menhir

A slight variation/addition to the folklore:

“at noon on Wednesday 16th February 1642 an extraordinarily strong wind dragged the upright Wergins Stone 120 yards away, making an 18” dent in the ground the whole distance, and carried the base stone 440 yards away through the air; a satanic black dog was seen running before one of the stones”

From “Stone Spotting In Herefordshire” – Jonathan Sant (2000 Moondial), referring to “Civil War in Herefordshire” – John Webb (1879)
