Is this a natural quoit found near the top of Corner Quoit? Would we have to call it Corner Quoit Quoit?

Corner Quoit

Natural Rock Feature

Mr Hamhead Jun 15, 2007

The name on the OS map suggests there should be something here....alas, I can find no written evidence of any quoit ever being here and nothing to suggest why the rock strewn hill top should have such a name.
Quarrying was done here in the mid 1800s and all around the area moorstone has been cut and taken. Was there a quiot here that had fallen and was carted off to build a nearby farm?
Despite these facts it is a great place to visit if you like atmospheric woodland and moss covered rocks.
