No trace survives, it seems, as the farmer destroyed it looking for fabled treasure beneath it in 1839 - so the story goes. Not far to the NW of Kinver hillfort, off Bannut Tree Lane, near the footpath shown cutting across the field. |

(2007-09-12) | Yes aluta, I took several others with better angles, but just for this one shot the westering sun shone through the clouds, so I chose this for the light. |
