Full Description
Possible four-poster stone setting, the stones set in dense broom on the west end of a prominent ridge. Two largest stones are irregular boulders, little weathered towards their base. They stand very close together, under 1 m apart, and have two small, rounded boulders set in the ground between them. It is a very doubtful stone circle.
