A very sad site/sight indeed. The monument consists of a pile of rocks. Underneath this field clearance you can see several stones that were probably part of the circle. At one end of the pile the axial stone stands, opposite it is one of the entrance stones - and that's all folks.

It appears as if the circle had a NE-SW axis, with the axial stone at the SW.
