What is recorded here

Stone Circle split by Drystone Wall is shown and named in a reusable Geograph picture. The saved point is the picture's recorded map point.
Likely dating to the Neolithic or Bronze Age, the stone circle was probably used for ceremonial or astronomical purposes. The split by a drystone wall suggests later agricultural activity, though the original significance of the circle may have been related to seasonal markers or communal gatherings.
