This stone is not marked on the OS maps, nor is it mentioned in the archaeological inventory. I spotted while walking down the road from the previous site. It may not be a genuine standing stone, but I think it could be.

It now leans greatly, but it definitely stood up at one time. When it started to fall a piece of it broke off and can still be seen standing up.
