An uncertain site according to Burl - probably a large court-tomb whose unimpressive remains consist mainly of a kerb of an almost-circular cairn some 18 metres in diameter, and sixteen surviving stones of a once-impressive central court. The site with fine views has been ruined by the usual hideous bungalow plonked right beside it.
