Originally this circle stood in New Scone until excavated in 1961 prior to the housing development it is now in the midst of. Seven stones, diameter of the circle about 16-17 feet, graded with the largest stones on the W-SW arc. An urn containing a token cremation was found in the centre during excavation.
