OLTORE Mass Rock
According to local information, a mass-rock was formerly located here. It consisted of a piece of undressed sandstone (H 0.9m; Wth 0.5m) which was inscribed with a cross. It was surrounded by bushes and stones. On inspection in April 1984 no visible surface trace survived. It was bulldozed in the 1970s during land-clearance works. The resulting spoil was packed against the field boundary to the SE but a search of that failed to locate it (see also GA042-230—-).
