The name ‘Ruggle Stone’ actually refers to the logan stone perched atop the bedrock. This, being a rocking stone, was recorded by William Crossing as “22 feet in length and 16 feet wide. Close to it is another “logging” stone, but one of a different character. It resembles a large slab, and is not more than half the length of the other. The weight of the larger rock has been computed to be about 115 tons.
