Stone Circle in North Uist. Originally some 36m in diameter, only the south-eastern half of this circle, exposed in a deep peat cutting, is now visible. A fallen stone is visible to the west but it is uncertain whether this lies on the circle. Barpa Langais chambered tomb lies a short distance away to the ENE.

Can we please correct the location of this circle as it is about 78m out at present. Can we please move to 57.55724 -7.33336 (NF 81153 64451) which is the centre. My brother has recently been to survey it so should get some photos soon.
Thanks,
David
