Cammo Stone

The Cammo Stone is situated within the old estate of Cammo, and stands within trees just to the south of the driveway leading to the ruins of Cammo House.

Measuring around 1.5m in height, it’s a substantial stone and is approximately 1.2m wide at the base by maybe 0.9m deep.

A small iron hook has been inserted into the stone on one side, possibly for use in the past as part of a fence or gate.
