Full Description

NG35NE 22 3875 5962.

At NG 3875 5962 in a slight hollow at the E base of a low natural hillock is an arc of four upright blocks, the highest c0.6m, which together with two prostrate slabs to the S form a rough circle c3.0m in diameter, of uncertain date and purpose.
Visited by OS (ISS) 19 October 1971.

Situated one third of a mile south of the Cuiderach road, and 20m SE of a telegraph pole at a height of c40m. Below a small knoll and in boggy ground is a circular setting of 4 upright and two recumbent stones. It measures 3.4m NE to SW and c3.2m NW to SE, with stones standing to a maximum height of 1.1m. Where no surface stones appear to indicate breaks in the circle, probing has located stones now buried at these points. (This would appear to be the same structure as that noted by OS.)
Miket and Wildgoose 1989.
