Stone Circle in Annayalla

Kiln, lime

What is recorded here

Situated on the SE-facing slope of a rise in an undulating landscape. It is depicted only on the 1907 edition of the OS 6-inch map where it is described in gothic lettering as a ‘Stone Circle’. This is an overgrown pit (dims of base 5.2m NE-SW; 3.2m NW-SE) cut into the hillslope and open to the SE with the slope retained by a stone-facing (max. H 1.75m).
