Standing Stone in Møre og Romsdal, Norway. Overlooking the sea and in a flat grassy field is a tall and slender standing stone. It is measured to be 5,2 metres in height and around 30 cm wide. The top is rounded and the sides seem smooth. This would have been a really beautiful standing stone if it was not for a horrible job someone did in trying to fix it when it once was broken in two.
A two metre high coat of concrete has been put on the side of the stone in an attempt to fix it. The concrete layer is around 10cm thick. The stone is on a artificial round hill and also has a concrete base.
