"It consists of a quarried multi-ring carving that is unlikely to be in its original situation"

This is the description from the Beckensall Archive. They have an incorrect placename, for the stone, and the setting is described as a fieldwall, yet there is absolutely no evidence for a field division there in the Tithe Commution map of 1838. In fact that section of the 'fieldwall' lines with a hilltop cairn (marked on the map as a currick) and the southern extreme moonrise. Which is very unusual for a fieldwall!
