I forgot to mention that I also came across this titbit, which is interesting.
Parish Boundaries Over East Devon Heathlands by Philippe Planel in Devon Archaeological Society 2004.
"...The additional point on this line is Putt's Corner (the Hare and Hounds), clearly a very ancient crossroads and marked by what may be an equally ancient or even more ancient stone. Named the 'Witches Stone' or 'Slaughter Stone' in legend and local memory... Even if we regard the legend as being of comparative recent origin, the stone was clearly brought here by human rather than natural agency; and the collective will to move stones of this size only existed in the Neolithic and Bronze Age periods."
Something is not right. This message is just to keep things from messing up down the road
