The nearby enclosure.......
Stones from the circle incorporated into the eastern bank of a Romano British enclosure.
The eastern part of Whitrow Beck circle.
The view to the north west from the centre.
Looking across the circle from the edge of the enclosure.
The circle consists of 15 low granite stones and has a diameter of 20m; it is sited next to the well preserved remains of a Romano British Enclosure into the walls of which some of the stones on the Western side have been incorporated. The circle although quite ruinous is easily recognized, although a number of the stones are hidden by tall grasses.
The extensive site, of which the circle is a part, bears evidence of long term occupation, containing not only the circle and enclosure but four substantial cairnfields, several stone banks, an ancient trackway, hut circles, and the remains of a medieval field system.
