Firstly I can't blame Tom Bullock for posting a picture of a puddle and thinking that this site was destroyed even when I stood within 10m of this circle I could not see it.
This is really well hidden in plain sight.
A well preserved classic five stone circle.
Situated on a rock outcrop above a small river it is entirely hidden in gorse.
The portals are somewhat parallel to each other and seem about .9m tall, the axial is about .7m high and even when standing on top of it the other stones are barely visible.

Condition: 4
Access: 3
Ambience: 4
