Four-poster(?)
Circle diameter: 30 feet(?), Number of stones: 4(?)
After long, wet and sloshy walk uphill, I found only a few scattered stones at site of coordinates. They did not appear to be remnants of a circle. There were a few other rock outcroppings within 100 yards or so. Very disappointing.
