Izntit visited on 25th May 2015 - their rating: Cond: 2 Amb: 3 Access: 3 GPS co-ordinates bring you to a locked gated private road. Compass position on smartphone unreadable at this point - bizarre! New to megalithic portal so didn't realise access onto private-owned land - sorry! Jumped over fences / awkward hedges to get in (easier route over farm gates noted on way back), keeping dog on lead as cows in field where ancient site is located. Rocks on circular mound, large central ones. Some stones appear burnt on one side where they look like they have been cut. Ruined site but was worth the visit, esp as so little information available anywhere about this place. Perhaps seeking permission to visit from the land owner might give some more clues.
