Details Remains of a stone circle with a setting of three stones, two in situ at the southwest edge of an oval mound and third, originally recumbent, now re-erected in the east with two chocking stones at its base. The mound, which measures circa 9 m by 6 m and stands 0.3m high, has been mutilated by trees. It appears to have been too small for a recumbent stone circle. The stones are all granite, each measuring 1.2 m in height.
