This ring, 36m to the NW of another (NC50SE 2) is the better preserved with four low stones on the circumference of a circle about 4m in diameter.
A Thom, A S Thom and A Burl 1980.

This group of four stones, occupying a low spur on the W bank of the River Shin, is as described and planned by previous authorities. Two of the stones are upright, but the other two are mere boulders, which may not have been set up. One of the uprights and one of the boulders are somewhat loose. There is some doubt that this is a pre-historic stone circle, and it may be a natural formation, wholly or in part.
Visited by OS (N K B) 28 July 1981.
