A small circle (foreground) with two portal stones about 1.3m high. 7m southwest there is a tall leaning stone 3.8m tall - between this and the circle a stone 4.3m long lies in the ground. The leaning stone has an interesting concave hollow about 8cm in diameter on its northeastern edge and roughly 1m up from the ground.
About 7m east of the circle there is a radial cairn, uncovered during peat-cutting in 1970 (31)
Stone circle looking east from the tall stone leaning stone. The large fallen stone in the ground between the leaning stone and the circle can be seen in the foreground
