Standing Stone in Denbighshire
Standing stone measuring 1.4m x 0.7m x 0.9m high and aligned approx E-W. Extensive sheep scour around the base has exposed possible packer stones. The field has well-preserved ridge and furrow aligned NNW-SSE and the stone lies in the east side of one of the ridges. Stone appears to be well-set and not an erratic (CPAT 2002)
