Notes about this historic site
1 Stone found at the above grid reference. The object is a low conical shaped piece of sandstone 4.3 cm in diameter with a flat base, the boss-like apex of which has been broken. The stone has been carved into a shape which can be most likely interpreted as the lid of a small vessel or pot. On the flat base is carved the letter F in a comparatively modern style of lettering no earlier in date than the 18th century. This however does not date the object itself and may have been added later.
2 The stone was picked up on a dam at Kingston Farm.
