Hi there,
I’m needing some local help to help resolve a dispute between 2 of my colleagues.

On the M6 South bound services at Tebay is a small stone circle. The debate is whether these 3 x 2 metre high stones are Limestone or Mudstone. Is there any chance that one of your members could visit this site when passing to clarify and resolve this issue.
