TheCaptain visited on 19th Sep 2005 - their rating: Cond: 1 Access: 5 Destroyed many years ago during construction of the road, just a few stumps and fallen stones of this cromlech remain scattered around near the junction. What was once a fine stone circle is now just a large road junction in the middle of nowhere.
