Stone Circle in Honshū
A stone circle (?) and kitchen middens on a tiny cape, the dense weed bush prevent from recognizing the shape of the stone setting.
Izushima island suffered severe damage by the 2011 great tsunami, but a new road is now (2016) under construction which runs close to this site, and a bridge might be built between the island and the mainland (only 300m distance) in near future.
