Description
Small stone circle located by K.Brassil (Silvester, R J 1992d).

Visit 22/12/98. Consists of 5 upstanding and one recumbent stone, with further recumbant stone inside. A small boggy stream flows through the circle. Largest stone is 0.75m high, smallest 0.2m.

Small stone circle bisected by man-made drainage gully, 2m wide, which runs approx N/S. Four stones in-situ on W side of gully with one in-situ on E side. Altogether there are three stones in the gully at this point which may have formed parts of the circle, but were displaced when the gully was dug. Given the fairly regular spacing of the surviving stones and the presence of three extra stones where the gully crosses the circle, it appears that the circle may once have comprised eight stones. Overall dimensions 6.0m N/S by 5.6m E/W, stones up to 0.7m high.
