Full Description
A possible Romano-British quernstone rough-out, found on 21st August, 1958 during a visit to Stanton Moor, by the the Buxton Summer School. The quern was found immediately west-north-west of the Cork Stone on a slight mound, which might have been a barrow. The stone had a tooled surface with marks left by a sharp, pointed instrument, presumably a mason's pick. The find was made by H. G. Ramm and D. Dymand. (1-2)
