The Golden Stone

Alderley Edge in the county of Cheshire U.K. has many interesting places worth visiting, one of these places is the Golden Stone which is not far from the Wizard restaurant, and is often overlooked as one passes by.

This curious looking boulder has been used for some mysterious purpose in the past and is said to contain some sort of energy. Its purpose remains unknown but it seems to have been used for some specific purpose long ago as the rear part of the stone seems to have been worn away, as if countless pairs of feet have once stood on it. The stone does not seem to have been transported here, but appears to be part of the natural landscape. The Golden Stone seems to have aquired its name because some people have claimed to be able to see a golden aura emanating from the rock, these people tend to be pyschics and mediums who have the ability to detect aura’s that living and some non-living things give off.

Perhaps one reason that could explain the worn appearance at the rear of the boulder is that people have chipped away at it over the years in the belief that it may yield gold due to its name.

Whatever the reason, it helps make Alderley Edge the special place it is due to the many strange and unique features that can be found here.
