Anne T couldn't find on 15th Jul 2021 - their rating: Amb: 3 Access: 4 Crossfoot Farm Standing Stone: We tried to find this stone, and even hopped across the gate into the field which the OS map shows it in, but no standing stone was visible. The field is next to a building site and it looks as if the field was being used to store both materials and rubble, making the field very difficult to walk across. We think the stone now may have fallen, and may be in an area of unmown grass, so is not visible from the highly chained and padlocked gate into the field.

The field the stone is in is next to a building site, with the field full of building materials and rubble. The gate into the field was very heavily chained and padlocked, but despite standing on the gate to look over, no stone was visible. We thought the stone may have been knocked over or fallen, and may be within an area of tall grass up a slight hill.

Would have like to have gone back the next morning to ask permission to walk into the field, but with a Covid-dictated exit time of 9am from the holiday cottage, this was before the builders had arrived, so didn't wait around.
