Harrys Stone
Date Added: 16th Aug 2013
Site Type: Ancient Temple
Country: England (Yorkshire (South))
Visited: Yes on 16th Aug 2013
Harrys Stone submitted by MartinRS on 16th Aug 2013. The site of Oxdale Lodge, by the side of Houndkirk Road. Fairbank's 18th Century map shows Oxdale Lodge to be the location of Harrys Stone. According to Addy, a 19th Century historian, 'Harry is the Anglo-Saxon hearh or hearg (pronounced harry), meaning a temple or idol.' Harrys Stone had gone by the time Addy visited this site in the 1880's. Martin Speck. (CC BY-SA 2.0)

The Hurkling Stone
Date Added: 19th Aug 2013
Site Type: Marker Stone
Country: England (Derbyshire)
Visited: Yes on 1st Mar 2010
The Hurkling Stone submitted by MartinRS on 9th Aug 2013. The Hurkling Stone on White Edge Moor. A prominent rock outcrop on White Edge itself is often mistaken for the Hurkling Stone probably because the letter 'H' is near to this stone on OS 1:25 000 maps. The Hurkling Stone is in fact a boundary marker and can be found next to the letter 'e' in stone on these maps.
