The forecourt is over the brow of the 'hill', to the northeast, and takes some scrambling to reach. Please have a look at the images in the gallery, on my website, of the two associated round barrows. One of those is very easy to find - and if you get to the forecourt you can see it from there. Looking down, and back, from that side of the mound (Halliwell Hill on the first OS) a hint of the southern excavation ditch may be seen right against the side of the hill.

It's probably not such a good idea to tell a stonemason what is and what isn't a gatepost. All stone is continually recycled. One curiosity is that my putative site for the passage grave that the original carved stone came from has, if the tree cover were removed, a perfect view of the Two Lads cairns on the horizon.
