megalithicmatt visited on 1st Jan 2003 - their rating: Cond: 4 Amb: 2 Access: 5 Big. Stands in the middle of an estate.
Addendum May 2015. This standing stone previously stood in front of a school, which was replaced by a new housing development in the 1990's. The stone may have been moved at that occasion and now stands bang on (57.16596, -2.12988).
