Location :
Cornwall

Grid Ref : SX2302078620
Summary : Possible stone alignment
More information : Stone setting depicted on AP transcription. (1)

A setting of stone which does not appear to be a natural
configuration, but in its probably despoiled state cannot be
typologically assessed. Situated on a very gentle south east slope at about 289m above OD on the lower slopes of Fox Tor, at SX 23027862.

Its primary components are two thin upright slabs 1m high and 3m apart set almost at right angles; one is 2.5m long the other 1m long. Ten lesser blocks of stone, from ground level to 0.3m high are randomly arrange within 3m of the slabs.

Surveyed at 1:2500 and 1:100. (2)
