Shave Farm

Standing Stone / Menhir

Rhiannon May 13, 2005

To the south of the farm is a large limestone block nearly 2 metres long, about 1m wide at the base and 30cm wide at the top. This has been provisionally identified as a prehistoric standing stone in the Somerset Historic Environment record. Ever hopeful. As the SHE says, do see if they’ll give you permission at the farm if you want to visit it.
