Summary : An extremely well-preserved and impressive stone circle, which is a scheduled ancient monument. It comprises 16 stones ranging in height from 0.3 to 1.1m, and delimiting an area c.22.5m in diameter. A standing stone pair, PRN 928, is located c.120m away at a bearing of 17 degrees and is clearly intervisible. The stone pair form a kind of 'gateway' to the view up to Carn Meini, which dominates the vista. N. Cook PFRS 2004
