remains of an outer circle approximately concentric,
connected with the inner circle by a line of boulders
which curves round towards the N. [North] side of the
inner entrance. 7' N. [North] of the entrance another
line of stones extends directly to the outer circum:
:ference, and 3' further N. [North] there is a small bed
of stones projecting 3'.6" into the space between
the circles. There is a suggestion of round
chambers being enclosed within these cross lines
but without excavation the plan is only indefinitely
obtainable. At about 21' E.N.E. [East North East] of the centre is a large
standing stone 4' high and 2' across its base set
with its broad face parallel with what appears
to be the line of the entrance to the inner enclosure
and from its outer edge the foundation of a wall
appears to run N.E [North East] for 8 ft. [feet] and
turning NW. [North West] forms the circumference of a
third circle, also approximately concentric
about 34' from the common centre. Four
large boulders, with their flat faces inwards
stand in the line of this circumference towards
the N and NE. [North and North East] 34' from centre at N.E [North East] and
38' at N. [North]. Southward of the standing stone

[Margin - Sketch inserted]

the line of the outer circumf. [circumference] swings
outward again and towards the S.E [South East] is
27' from centre. Beyond SSE. [South South East] it is lost.
