Slab 1 with the hole in it, here looking towards the SW and the standing stone in the distance.
(A separate photo will show the hole in close-up).
Jack Walker says that this hole and the menhir align with the place on the horizon where the winter solstice sun sets.  He wonders if this is the original Winter solstice sunset alignment at Merrivale.
