From the northern circle I lined up my map and walked off in a southeasterly direction. On the map a small pond is shown near the row and noticing the bumps in the ground I reckoned on where I might find it.
I must admit I took the cairn for a waste tip from the early mining in the area. I am still not sure if the three larger stones lying on the ground are part of the row or if it starts with the first upright.
I will let you decide.
I must admit I did not walk the whole length of the row, only as far as the workings.

My fieldnotes from 2 years ago said "try again when weather is better"
Could not have asked for a better day! the sun shone down, there was a nice breeze..and I had the place to myself.
The circle is easily seen from Leskernick Hill on a good day and not far from the footpath just south of it.

I actually found this by walking up from the farmhouse and studying the map very hard.....needless to say i found several other "circles" on my way.
It does not look like a circle and it was only on using the TMA and the Bodmin Moor survey book that I recognised it.
