Murrary Royal Standing Stone

Standing Stone / Menhir

Chris Sep 4, 2002

I found this in the grounds of the Murray Royal Hospital in Perth.
No-one knows its history, but it has a look of age about it, and its been there as long as anyone can remember.

You can find it at the low end of the Hospital, in front of the ‘new’ wards.
