Visit Notes

Sunday, 20th April 2003

The circle is very scattered and very ruinous. Several stones still stand, but most of them are located in the hedgerow next to the picturesque stream that runs just 10m away from the site.

To me it appears that there was a multiple stone circle here (now destroyed) and a later attempt was made to erect a five stone circle at the north of the site. This is now represented by just three slabs.

What does make this site worth a visit is the boulder burial which is simply perfect!
