Stone Circle (NR) (Remains of).
OS 6" map (1906)
This site was included by Fraser in his list of Clava-type cairns, but there is now nothing to indicate whether the remaining stones are the remnants of a kerb or part of a stone circle. There were formerly four stones, set in a diameter of roughly 55ft but the southernmost (and not the northernmost, as stated by Henshall after her visit on 12 April 1957) has disappeared (A S Henshall 1963).
The north stone is 3ft 3ins high, the centre stone is almost flush with the ground, and the south stone is 2ft 3ins high. The stones are conglomerate sandstone. Resurveyed at 1/2500.
