Reference: Dartmoor Crosses

Mentioned by Rev. H. Hugh Breton it would seem that this supposed cross socket stone could actually be a take-off point for the nearby leat near Hayford. No one seems to know for sure but Chris Bishop was told about the leat theory by Harry Starkey. Two possible purposes, both plausible, but with no evidence of a cross in the vicinity it is difficult to believe that this buried stone was the base of a cross. But who knows? Dartmoor likes to surprise us!

If it is a water regulator stone, why was it seemingly dumped here?
