Re: Merton Stone by trui on Wednesday, 30 January 2008

jenny gladstone - what a great name
i am very pleased to hear that the society is keen to register this stone as a RIGS SITE.
You can find it just south, by about 100yds of a [east/west]track, lying in kind of large hollow-gulley [rather than a ditch] by the edge of a field, east from the route of the Pedders Way. It displays mossy-type vegitation on its surface, which eliminates some types of stone. It is very unusual - unlike others i have come across. I actually read somewhere that it was this type - and thus quite possibly of scandinavian/norweigan origin.
please do investigate and confirm.
keep up the good work
suggest you make contact with the land-owner Lord [Grey] Walsingham
at Merton.

Something is not right. This message is just to keep things from messing up down the road
