Hi Davey,

Just thought I should mention that one of your photographic posts for 'Ringstone Edge' has gone wrong:

Sorry if you already knew about it.

Incidentally, is this site definitely a ring cairn? I just wondered whether it might be the remains of a kerbed cairn (I'm just too lazy to double check though).

I thought that I had deleted it it, none seem to be working.
About the Ring Cairn. There is a suggestion of an internal kerb and maybe an outward one as well. It has been ploughed at least once so it is in a bit of a mess. History has it as having standing stones but when they disappeared is not certain. They could have been taken for walling or for helping to build the reservoir nearby. There is still one stone that would fit the bill as a Yorkshire circle standing stone though.

This one didn't make it in one piece either.
