The National Monuments Service's description
In relatively level pasture. A report in 1976 (SMR file) recorded a possible standing stone at this location but suggested that it may have been a scratching post for cattle. The stone has since been removed. A hut site (LF010-119----) is located c. 80m to the SE.
