This stone points an accusing finger to the south west. I didn’t try to get into the field, the fence was difficult and I am not as young as I used to be.

Standing Stone / Menhir

pure joy Jan 10, 2003

I didn’t have chance to visit this but it is mentioned in Ian McNeil Cooke’s ‘Standing Stones of the Land’s End’ (1998 Men-an-Tol Studio) as a 2.45cm menhir standing in a field. Seems to be close to a country lane.
