J Stuart 1868
At NO 1021 5698, in a low, inconspicuous position is the circle of nine stones described by Stuart, most of them now prostrate. It appears to have measured c. 8.0m in diameter. The stones vary in size from 1.3m long x 0.9m wide and 0.5m long x 0.4m wide, and when standing, the tallest cannot have been much more than 0.9m high - this is in the SW arc.
Surveyed at 1:2500.
