Full Description
Site of a stone circle. The circle had outer ring of smaller stones covering the ground in large quantities to a breadth of 4.87m. Six large blocks of stone marked the circle proper. By the late 19th century the stones had been removed to build Ley Farm house, although at that time the outline of the circle could be traced on the ground. Now no trace.
