Ring Cairn in Derbyshire
According to John Barnatt (1990) this is a possible ringcairn with a stone bank approximately 7.5m by 5.5m wide internally. One stone lies at the inner edge which could have been a standing stone but is more likely to have fallen from the bank. A possible entrance lies to the south.
