On the Carn Goedog rock outcrop - part dressed (?) large bluestone.  This was is a big stone about 14ft long ready to go.  Be nice to think this being an abandoned stone for a circle. I can't foresee why someone would need such a massive stone otherwise, a bit big and heavy for a door lintel.  It can be seen by its location amongst small rocks this has been moved in the past, just how far past?

There is a lot of quarrying evidence throughout all ages, as you say difficult to know which age caused the most displacement of stones.
