That’s a nice bit of stone carving, it must be fairly new as it wasn’t there when I last went a few years ago, I’ve got an inkling about who carved it, though I don’t know why it was needed either.
I was told that ‘Jeppe’ means ‘Geoff’ and that it’s the resting place of a 14th century outlaw known as Geoff Curtis, but we’ll probably never know!
I didn’t go into all the theories of the grave’s origin. and why it is situated at that spot. Though my link to the bronze age cairn has a lot of onformation.
