stonetracker visited on 1st Jan 2023 - their rating: Cond: 5 Amb: 4 Access: 2 Access is the same as that for the Foxborough Dolmen (see that visit log). This site can actually be seen from the dolmen, which is about 100 ft to the north.
Four large boulders almost evenly spaced on a ledge are positioned on an exact magnetic north-south axis. This seems too precise to be just an accident of glaciation or coincidence. The southernmost boulder is slightly larger than the others.
Note: The alignment does not point to the nearby Dolmen, but it isn't far from perpendicular to it.
