The group of four stones at west-northwest is in the foreground.


We left the car at the junction between the road and the track on the side of a farm. We walked up the track for 450 metres, we crossed the barbed wire and walked for 60 metres in the field. The farmer's dog came with us and kept us company for the whole visit leaving us for some short moments only to chase some hares.
The circle has 10 stones or group of stones over a diameter of about 7 metres.
At west-northwest there a small group of 4 stones, at north-northeast there is what I think it is the axial stone of the circle.
The views from up here are breathtaking!
