Chyangwens submitted by enkidu41 : This stone stands prominently higher than its wall companions making it easily visible from a distance. (Vote or comment on this photo)
This triangular-shaped 1.7 metres high stone stands in a feld boundary wall about three-quarters of a mile east-south-east of the Boscawen-un Stone Circle.

The stone is located in a hedge.
