Stone alignments covering an area over 300 feet by near 400 feet. In excess of 450 stones recorded here, running north east to south west. Now very jumbled and hard to pick out a pattern, though smaller areas of stones are still clearly aligned. Three cists were noted here, but now impossible to locate. Clearance cairns also visible in places. Access onto open field from public footpath running north - south. Wooded area to the west of the path provides a useful point of reference. Spectacular views to the south and west.
