Full Description

S26 (NL693989) Circular stone setting 12 x 9 m on low-lying flat shelf 200 m from the ea. Nine stones in situ; we estimate two more have been robbed out and some stones lie near. The stones are 0.5 - 0.7 m in height. The function and date are unclear, but it has the appearance of an ancient setting.
