Description
Serious vandalism occurred in summer of 1988 when the three vertical stones and the slab of the central setting were moved. A small excavation cleared out a 1.1 m square area below the site of the 'coverstone' to reveal the stone sockets; large quantities of quartz were found in the area. The stones were later re-erected.
