Image of The Steyning Stone (Standing Stone / Menhir) by A R Cane

This will probably end up on the ‘disputed antiquity’ list, but this is reputedly the stone that gives Steyning it’s name. There’s very little known about it but one end is apparently more worn than the other, suggesting it once stood erect. It now resides in the porch of St. Andrews Church.

If this is a genuine standing stone then that’s quite some artwork. There again perhaps it was a later addition.

The bottom of the stone with a cross incised. Or is the stone upside down as the cross would appear to be?
