When I saw that brick red stone in Normans photos of Foxborough I remembered that there was also one in a 'prayer seat' here. I knew this rock was odd, it stood out, I have not found another one around here. I knew it had some kind of connection to this seat here. Also, the shape of the Foxborough 'prayer seat' area is exactly like the one I have here. (A large enclosed area with the seat at the far end) I am unable to take a complete photo of the whole seat because much of it is under heavy debris and leaf mould but I can distinctly see the same shaped outline!
I was very excited to have seen that link to one of my local piles!

An interesting observation being brought out by Larry Harrop, Norman, and now Keith. I'll try to keep a lookout for red rocks in prayer seats.
Where is reader Keith located? When he refers to "here," I assume it is not Foxboro.

Mendon, Ma.- sorry
I should visit Foxborough again to see those sites!

(Years Later) I note the red rock is blocking off the opening of the "seat". I see this often enough to think it was part of the ritual.
