I have visited· I would like to visit
david-p visited on 20th Aug 2021 - their rating: Cond: 1 Amb: 3 I have put some drone photos of this site taken by a very kind drone pilot. Very random photos as there are not so many points we could pinpoint.
Anyone who visited this site as the old Car Boot Market will possibly know that this area has quite large stones in the ground. I wonder if these are fallen stones, random stones or moved stones. They do look flat and slightly shaped?
I welcome any knowledge of people that know where exactly to point the drone
Slightly further down the track there are 2 small ground depressions which could be part of the circles or the area where stones were removed. On one is a perfect circle which could just be sheep tracks.
From ground level - nothing of note except those huge stones
