Manor. It may, therefore, be reasonably inferred that this was the name handed 

 down to that time by tradition, and that the steward and the jury in their use of 

 the name were perpetuating a previous record of the boundary of the Manor. 



It only remains to give an account of the dimensions and position of the 

 stones as they now are : the space within them is about 13ft. wide, the south-west 

 stone is 5ft. high, and 13ft. 9in. in circumference ; that to the south-east is 

 4ft. lOin. by 12ft. Sin. round ; an e.xeavation showed that this stone is embedded 

 2ft. in the ground. The north-west stone is 6ft. high, and 15ft. 3in. round, and 

 the north-east stone 4ft. high and lift, round. The relative distances at which 

 they are placed are :— North-west to north-east, 8ft. 4in. ; north-east to south-east, 

 5ft. 6iu. ; south-east to south-west, 7ft. Gin. ; south-west to north-west, 7ft.
