Well done @T4tomo

That is the entrance to the Skara Brae neolithic site. If that's a milestone, or other marker contemporaneous with Skara Brae, it may be a few thousand years old, predating the fence by about five thousand years.

I was toying with whether to confirm that it's not Shetland And yes, the 2014 Streetview date was intended to suggest 'not Shetland' ;)

Btw that's unlikely to be a milestone or boundary stone. I'm guessing it's just a handy bit of stone the farmer used as a fence support. I used to spend a lot of time hunting down milestones and that's way too thin. They tend to be very chunky pieces of stone. And if you ever find an uprooted one it's amazing how far under ground they go.

When SoV first posted I thought it looked a bit coastal, but also looked like high moorland and the corn field looking like something else sent me off in the wrong direction until Aravis mentioned Shetland, so I thought I'd look at Orkney and found some Oct 2014 views...

let me have a think for the next one..

Let the process of elimination begin. This is not Hawkswood lane crossing the Alder Bourne near Fulmer. Although it looks quite a bit like it.
