Pinkery 14 – Sloley Stone |
Lew Combe Stone is one of the forest boundary stones, north of Moles chamber and not far off an eighteenth century monument, called the Sloley stone. It was also known as the longstone (despite its shape) or hore stone according to Ancient Exmoor by Hazel Eardley-Wilmot. This stone marks the county border and the old forest boundary. This ran from the Saddle stone, past the Edgerley stone, Lewcombe stone, Horsehead stone, Buttery stone and the lost Longstone at Sandyway. This small squat stone has “Fortescue’ inscribed upon it, the surname of the family that once owned a great area of the forest. It stands looking down the valley into a stream, as many prehistoric stones do, so might be older than medieval |
