Jubilee Rock is a

King George III[2] and was restored in 1859 and 1887. Two more inscriptions have been added: these commemorate the Golden Jubilee of Queen Victoria (1887) and the Golden Jubilee of Elizabeth II (2002).[3]

It is considered to be the oldest stone on Bodmin Moor. It is 10 feet high and 25 feet across[4] and stands at 213 metres above sea level.[5]

One author has implied that Jubilee Rock was previously a

Logan stone,[6]
although the quoted source indicates that the dimensions are significantly different casting doubt on the assertion.
