Briton Claims He Grows Stones at Iken Cliff
William Barber of Iken Cliff near Aldeburgh announces he can make stones grow, a process he says has lasted 15 years. He reports growth of about three sixteenths of an inch yearly, occurring in spring and fall, requiring water and periodic turning to stay round.
