Details Remains of possible recumbent stone circle, comprising two large stones within 1.21m of each other. They are of extremely rugged whinstone. The surrounding ground has been ploughed to within 1m of the stones and the circle has been substantially destroyed. Although suggested that the two stones are pillar stone and recumbent, a 1928 report on the monument concluded that the two pieces were from the same stone.
