A rebuilt stone circle with small stones, to illustrate the astronomical purpose of the site. In the 1920s an archaeologist found remains of an oval prehistoric stone circle 300m to the west of the rebuilt site. 30m to the north-east a 1.2m tall standing stone could be found (perhaps a part of the ancient stone circle)
