There is a sub category of standing stones called "Seeing Stones", or "Stones of Foresight". These standing stones are more or less the size of a human child, and they seem to have disappeared from the landscape.
Many ancient standing stones were removed or destroyed due to the spread of Christianity, as authorities sought to suppress pagan practices associated with these sites. Maybe Seeing Stones were particularly targeted because legend had it that by standing in front of the stone and covering both "eyes" with the palms of your hands, you would have a dream that very night. That dream would predict your future.
Most of the information for this short essay comes from a leaflet I came across in Norwich library.
Here is the photo, you can clearly see the "eyes":
Here is the map of the UK, note the two small triangles which mark the last known Seeing Stone sites:
And in the more detailed image of the Wash you can see the towns of Wrangle (top left) and Wolverfton (bottom right). According to local historians one stone was near Wrangle, the other near Wolferton. The stones are no longer there, they were either stolen or destroyed
I would love to find a Seeing Stone and see if it really could predict my future. I've had very mixed results with Astrologers.
