Jean Carr's Stone
Jean Carr's Stone
This is a large isolated boulder of conglomerate. It is named after Jean Carr, whose sad life is described on an information board nearby. She was kept a prisoner by her father until his death. Later she had a son who was taken from her by the authorities and later died. Jean took to stealing other folk's children. She lived for a time underneath the stone, and was finally found dead lying close to it.
