Located 140m ESE of the ruins of Corlick Farmstead and 55m south of the path/road is a nearly intact circle, 9 1/2m in diameter as measured N-S and E-W, with an entrance facing directly east. The feature is difficult to discern using aerial views available online, but measurements have been confirmed by tape and compass over the course of several site visits. Approximately half of the stones forming the circle are visible, with the other half hidden under heather, though their presence has been confirmed. The site is in fair shape, the circle closely resembling the type/build listed as Wosas PIN 66410. May be under threat from proposed wind farm.
