in length by 1'8" across. The fourth stone of
the outer circle stands a little to the N. of E. [North of East] of
the first stone & just protrudes. The next stone is on the NE [North East], it is 4' high by 1'10" deep.
Both upright stones stand with an edge towards
the centre of the circle. From the S. [South] side of the
last mentioned stone a row of stones marks
the line of the circumference for a distance
of 4'9" and at other parts of the circle there
are indications of other stones similarly set.
Of the inner circle there appears to be five
stones in situ and one prostrate. They are
from 2' to 3' in height above the ground and
the prostrate stone is 4'2" in length. They appear
to have been set with their broad faces in line
of the circumference. Slightly to the N. [North]
of the centre of the circle are signs of a low
cairn which seems to have been excavated.
For nearly 1/4 m. [mile] N. [North] are small cairns along
the haunch of the hill.

[Margin] Unnoted

Some 40 yds. [yards] E. [East] of the circle is an old circular
enclosure measuring 40' x 46' with an entrance
from SE. [South East] of indefinite width. The wall on the
W. [West] side extends indefinitely along the
hill as if the side of an old enclosure .
Some 300 yds [yards] SE. [South East] is another group of
cairns some of which are rather larger
