This is a fine
example of a recumbent stone circle which dates from about 4000 BC. The entrance to
the ring is marked by a massive horizontal stone, flanked by two tall portal stones. A
distinction can be made between the granite of the entry stones and the pinkish porphyry
of the remaining boulders. |
