Hangman's Stone (Northleach)

Site Type: Standing Stone (Menhir)

Visited: Yes on 31st Jan 2012. My rating: Condition 2 Ambience 3 Access 4
Hangman's Stone (Northleach) submitted by thecaptain on 14th Jan 2007. Is this the remains of a burial chamber from a longbarrow ? Is it a fallen menhir ? Is it a more modern boundary stone ? Is it the remnants of a hangmans gibbet ?
I don't know, but to me it could easily be the remains of a burial chamber.

Log Text: Barrow is badly pitted but set in a beautiful spot near to a 'castellated' barn - the nearby village Didmarton (with the deserted old parish of Oldbury-on -the-hill) has much to offer

Log Text: I am intrigued as to why this is also called 'Chastleton Barrow' - could 'Barrow' be a corruption of 'Bury' (in the local dialect where there 'y' is not pronounced) - and it is still populated by horses -
