The approximate axial-line. Notice how the easternmost standing stone, a slab, is not parallel, but forms an angle to the line, towards the same target. Whatever that may be.

Yellow marker in estimated circle centre. From here the westernmost standing stone indicates the north ridge of Carrigfadda.

The top of the western circle-stone bears a more than passing resemblance to the top of Carrigfadda.

Looking westnorthwest along the top of the axial stone, to show the cup shaped depression, similiar to that at (possibly) Carrigagrenane NE and Drombeg. Located here at the left hand side, from a position inside and facing the stone, it is regular and even in shape, measuring about two and a half inches in diameter and about a third of an inch deep.

Looking north – Lettergorman South can be seen with the eye, but is indicated here with a big helpful arrow.
