Hiking
One of the Norbury Boulders, originally transported by glacier from Scotland some 20,000 years ago, then the final 2 miles from nearby Gorse Farm rather more recently by low-loader. It's part of a linked walk past fiver boulders, the Norbury Millennium Boulder Trail. This one is the biggest, and shows dark 'xenoliths', fragments of the magna chamber wall incorporated into the granite as it solidified 400 million years ago.
