The slender limestone column with strong signs of weathering is generally known as the "Long Stone". Flattenings on the sides, on which remnants of inscriptions can be seen, indicate that it was used as a signpost at one time. However, the inscription above an arrow is no longer visible. The appearance of the direction arrow indicates that the inscription dates to the period around 1850-1880.
