Excavations in 1978-9 revealed that the dimensions of this elliptical circle are somewhat smaller than the 14.6 x 12.7m previously given. In the NE quadrant Bryce's waterlogged trench was located cutting through a large circular feature which may prove to be a post hole. By the NW stone a large pile of stones beneath the peat may have been the result of prehistoric field clearance during the later Bronze Age.
