The stone circle dates to about 2500 BC and lies in a ditch which is surrounded by a 7 foot high circular bank which as 2 gaps , one is at southeast the other at northwest. There are 59 stones altogether with 4 stones in the centre of the circle, when an excavation was done during 1901 and 1902 a human skeleton was found. All stones are limestone blocks and are lying flat, it is not sure whether it was done this way or that the stones have all toppled over through time.

The stone circle is known to have ley lines running through, these are sometimes connected to the paranormal.
