The recumbent setting of this circle stands in a field on the S side of the public road at Stonehead, a location on a broad terrace at the top of the steep escarpment dropping down to The Shevock. The recumbent (2) is a block measuring some 3.9m in length and its gently domed summit is up to 2.1m high. The flankers (1 & 3), which are aligned with the leading edge of the recumbent, stand 2.95m and 2.4m high respectively, the taller on the W also being the more slender. Field clearance has been gathered into a mound at the rear of the setting and probably includes two large stones lying to the NW of the W flanker.
