Full Description

VN9 (NL624973) Arc-shaped stone setting, 11.4 x 8.6 m, against a rock outcrop, with roughly built wall linking the arc to a second rock face, thus forming an enclosure 25 x 8 m. The arc-shaped setting is too large to be a shelter type E and is presumed to be part of the enclosure system.
