Brow Moor Standing stone

Standing Stone / Menhir

fitzcoraldo Dec 9, 2003

This stone is approx 2m high and 1m broad. The weathering on the top of the stone indicates it’s antiquity. It has been damaged by the fire and will no doubt suffer further damage once the frost begins to permiate the cracks caused by the intense heat of the fire.
There is another large standing stone on the moor which is taller and narrower, but the Mighty Graeme C informs me that this is a recent addition to the moor’s topography.
