Questionable circle of stones, part of the Lacra complex.
Aubrey Burl in 'A Guide To Stone Circles Of Britain, Ireland and Brittany' states that Lacra E is "a very uncertain ring cairn" that "can be imagined 25ft (8m) to the north-west [of Lacra D]".
Pastscape (under the record for Lacra D) states:
An alleged second circle immediately to the north-west [of Lacra D] comprises three pieces of stone visible at ground level and cannot be certainly identified.
