The Long Stone is a standing stone located approximately 200 metres north-east of Tremenheere in Cornwall. The monument dates to the prehistoric period, likely the Bronze Age or earlier, and represents one of the numerous upright stones that characterise the landscape of west Cornwall. The stone stands as a physical marker of ancient settlement and territorial organisation in the region, though its exact original purpose—whether as a boundary marker, ritual monument, or funerary indicator—remains uncertain. Like many Cornish standing stones, it has endured for millennia as evidence of the prehistoric communities who shaped the landscape.
