Description: | The elevated, very slightly convex 'grinding face' lacks any trace of dressing owing to the very friable character of the laminated sandstone. At the centre of the face a small portion of a circular iconical eye. The sides of the stone are approximately vertical and bear some slight trace of pocking, but the surface of the almost horizontal base is only roughly dressed to shape. The fragment is in a weak condition and the original grinding face seems wholly to be lost.
