Possible Standing Stones in Cumbria
Two very large standing stones which would have stood I estimate 3-4m high and are now laying down and broken. It is easy to see all the pieces and they are where they would have stopped if thesr very large standing stones had fallen or been pushed over a long time ago. The broken parts have lichen and moss growth on them. These standing stones may have alignment with Skiddaw on the horizon. There are also smaller outlying stones which may form parts of a stone circle, this requires further investigation.
