It’s a long shot. But taking scale from the foot in view I’d go with a stone from Arbour low.

I thought that might have been a rucksack strap,  but I think you are onto something.  


Do you think it could be this stone. ?

It does resemble the stone I shot, but it's not the same one - unless the original poster placed it wrongly.

There you go!  Gib Hill burial mound is the one.  About half a mile from Arbor Low
The stone is the capstone on the top of the mound.

I think the confusion for me is English heritage lists them as one site.   On inspection that was the stone in gibs hill I posted.

It is the same one then.  Well done
I sent the drone up (briefly) at Arbor Low. But the wind was too firece to fly about. So I did a top-down shot and brought it back down again. Landing was tricky - hand catching was impossible as it was jinking all over the place. Heart-in-mouth landing (unscathed)
