Today there are four stones left of the largest stone circle. Three of them on a line and the last on the opposite side. The stones are large rounded boulders, around 60-70cm wide and around 0,5m in height and distance between them around 2 metres. The stones today are a part of a private garden and the short lawn grass makes them easy to see though some higher grass grows around the stones edges.
