Full Description

Structure - unknown.
Unusual triangular arrangement of 3 sets of 2 boulders, set on a 10m x 10m, short grassy ‘oasis’ in gently SW-sloping, short heather-covered hillside. The paired boulders are each up to ‘double football’ size and are lying with their longsides on the ground. The lower, SW ‘side’ between two of the pairs, trends parallel to the contours and is 5m long, the E, steepest, ‘side’ is 4m long and the N ‘side’ crosses the slope obliquely for 6m. It is unsure of what, if anything, this structure represents. <1>
