This stone circle, situated on gently sloping ground 1.1 km SE of Hough House, probably measured about 40 m in diameter. It now consists of eleven fallen stones together with the stump of another, but originally there were probably additional stones in the gaps. A turf bank and the remains of a turf-walled building flank the circle on the N.
