Visited 10th August 2004: This is the first 'proper' outlier to the stone circle (I can't see how the more distant stone can be described as an outlier). Contained within the same field as the circle and Outlier 1 you have to double back on yourself a bit from the gate to get to it. It was at this stage in our visit that the severity of the rain really became apparent. We were sodden! Kammer Posted by Kammer

This second outlier stands about 100m SW of the circle, in line with the first. It is over 2m in height but has been broken at some point in the past. nickbrand Posted by nickbrand
