The sign reads ‘Organics only, no plastics’. I think this stone qualifies. I chatted with the man who lived in the house opposite who was a boy when the peat diggers found the stone. He told me that when the houses were being built they were going to throw the stone away but people told the developers to keep it which is why it remains. This old man didn’t seem too convinced of its authenticity though.

These stones have their own traffic warning. Drivers seemingly swerve as they pass them and have a quick look.

Sadly we weren’t allowed in the field to see this stone and so had to make do from the road.

The origin of the name of Churchill is unknown but some think it may come from the Old English word “cyrc” which means a hill, a burial ground, or a barrow. Ie: Cyrchill.
These stones are quite possibly the remains of a stone circle from the neighbouring village of Sarsden whose name also sounds like Sarsen. Coincidence? Who knows?
