A line of stones laid down apparently as Steps.
"What are called "the Stepping Stones of Glenterra" are not a little curious. About three feet deep, in a peat moss, there is a regular file of Stepping Stones extending about a quarter of a mile. These must have been placed to form a passage through a swamp previous to the growth of the peat moss". Statistical Acct [Account] of Wigtonshire p. [page] 85.
A light covering of Moss appears to have accumulated over these stones which appears only as the Moss becomes cut away for Fuel. they appear to be about 100 lbs [pounds] weight each and the moss at present is only about 18 Inches deep. - |
