TheCaptain visited on 18th Jun 2022 - their rating: Cond: 2 Amb: 3 Access: 3 In about what should be the middle of the stone row, past the cows and further on I find a sort of stone setting, which I think is what I have called Trehudreth Downs B stone setting. There is a sort of standing stone stump, with a few other bits arranged in a square around it, and is certainly not natural. Once home, looking in my Bodmin Moor survey, and I find it is included as a stone setting in there.
See Historic England Monument Number 433992. Trehudreth Downs - Possible stone setting.
and Historic England HER Number 3619. Trehudreth Downs - Neolithic standing stone.
