This area is very rich in monuments and this is one of the finest. Some reports I read said that there were six stones, four of which still stood while the other two lay on the ground nearby.
When I visited there were five standing and none lying around. The stones form an east-west aligned row on the top of a rounded platform. To the north and south low, rocky hills block the views. To the east and west is some spectacular scenery.
The stones that still stand don't seem to fit into any formula regarding the progression of their heights. The tallest stone is over 2m, one other is just under 2m and the others are all around 1.3m tall.
