Details Remains of a recumbent stone circle, now obliterated except for the recumbent stone and the east flanker, now fallen, with three earthfast stones in front of them, apparently part of the original setting. Three other stones were removed some years before 1866. The recumbent has a razor-like edge which appears to be a feature of the recumbent stone circles around Insch.
