My family used to farm land which is now under Stansted Airport. The old farm house is still standing on the edge of the airport and some years ago, when I visited it, the present tenants told me they were mystified by occasional visitors asking directions to "the pagan stone". My mother, who died last year at 97 years old, remembered a stone which she and other children used to play on. She said they called it "Queen (somebody's) gravestone" Could this have been the Stansted Airport Stone, now relocated to the crossroads at Takeley?
Does anybody know whether there is a record of the exact original location of this stone?
I very much regret that I cannot remember the name of the "Queen" my mother mentioned.
Something is not right. This message is just to keep things from messing up down the road
