Description This is an evocative large stone circle, surrounded by ancient hawthorn trees which are covered in large lichen. Half the circle has been eroded by the river running by leaving only a semi circle. The stones stand on a low earth bank. Close by are the Loupin Stanes. We visited this circle on a beautiful hot day in summer, there was no one else around, it was a very peaceful place to be.
