The Bradstone
The Bradstone submitted by Stu : The New Wirksworth Standing (or lying!) stone. (Just east of the Bradstone). (Vote or comment on this photo)
Recently discovered between the standing stones of Wirksworth West and the lost East stone in Derbyshire is this little stone which would have been between 50 and 60cm high when it was upright. This is completely different to the West and East stones. The western stone is visible from this one approximately 175m away.

For the known Wirksworth standing stone, it is listed with a name "The Bradstone", and gives it as having a closely neighbouring smaller standing stone.

Good'un Stu. Tim
