The site was reported as badly damaged in December 1998, having been cut by a lane. A single boulder was reported in a field. A fourth stone was found in a field, but this seemed to have been relocated due to the change in colour at one end (cleaner, less weathered) indicating it had been unearthed.
Archwilio records this as a Neolithic Stone Row PRN 102134 made up of four large stones and two small ones, 4.7 metres long. "One stone is a boulder, the others set on edge at right angles."
This site is at an altitude of 121 metres and is to the west of Pant Farm, currently against the eastern side of a small wooded area.
