This example of an ancient weathered and gnarled Limestone Standing Stone (right) is a good indicator of how the old gate posts, once set in a lawned area, can look fantastic.
Another exciting idea is to have one standing stone surrounded by a circle of much shorter stones.
Alternatively a single standing stone could be surrounded by colourful heathers, rock plants, perennials or even attractive bedding plants.
