I knew I was heading in the wrong direction when the railway track appeared on my left hand side, so I doubled back, failed to find the gate I'd come through and guessed which way to head. I knew I was getting close when I reached a big sign saying, "Beware of the bull in this field". A common ploy, easily transparent when there is no bull in sight.
The stone, a nice one, stands confined between two barbed wire fences in a field boundary. It is 1.8m tall, 60cm wide and 30cm thick. It has been shaped very nicely with a rounded top.
The tumulus marked on the OS map next to it is practically invisible beneath a mass of trees and bushes.
