Yes that was my impression at the time, but further investigation of the TMA database gives this in the right place...

I'm just holding out hope that the restoration may have been a little more sympathetic than is implied.

I don't think that is the same "circle " Moss . The article describes the recent one as being near Wilton which is the other side of Egremont and 4km to to the west , plus Burl mentions the one noted by Fitz and it was marked on the 1957 OS large scale map .
