nddavies visited on 22nd Apr 2011 - their rating: Cond: 2 Access: 4 Three stones and the central mound remain in a pasture field. The stones have all fallen. Drainage seems poor - it was a bone dry day but the reeds hint at soggy ground.
Access from the northwest may be problematic. The stile out from the field looked overgrown. Access is easy from the 4-way junction of paths just southeast. Approach this junction from the good paths west or southeast.
