Old stone in hadston.
i meant to show you this earlier, my father dug this up in the garden while re laying a lawn about 10 years ago, it is at lake view where the wooden bungalows are, the whole site was stripped prior to building works and then top soil brought in later, the stone was in the sub soil and had to dig fairly deep to get it out.

My goodness...that's old. Are they carvings up the stem of it? Could almost be the start of a Celtic cross upright?

I wonder how Hadston got its name? Perhaps you've uncovered the original "Hade Stone" or something!

HADESTON on the 1296 & 1312 Subsidy roll (also Haddiston)
What does hade mean? it has a modern geological meaning which will not be relevant. |
