    This is a semi-circular flat stone, the outside raised [?] of which looks like a wind shield for candles the sochets [?} of which are within. The stone lies in a large natural hollow about a quarter of a mile south from Rockstown house, in the parish of Fedamore.
    The hollow would accomidate about three hundred people who would be safe from observation from any direction.
    The rock is somewhat overgrown by long grass and weeds but certain shapes as mentioned may still be easily traced thereon.
