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

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 .

Hi Tiompan, I was just going by the Street map, which has Wilton to the east of Egremont? and the fact that it was called Druid's Temple, Yewcroft, and in the latest news clip from Nigel this reference is made....

" I am also hoping to locate the position and size of the destroyed stone circle at Yewcroft in Wilton.”

But I truly can't say where it is..........
