**Cup and Saucer Stone** submitted by Celia_Haddon : CUP AND SAUCER STONE, CROPREDY. This worked stone, thought to be either a font or the base of a cross, now sits on a mown road edge near a new estate. The road is called Cup and Saucer - so the stone has been acknowledged and claimed. (Vote or comment on this photo)
