Full description
Staggered linear arrangement of four end-set granite slabs, divided structurally into two sets of two - the northern having their widths transverse to the alignment, the southern having their widths aligned. These southern slabs are also slightly smaller. Suggested alignment with Stannon and Louden circles. The monument was included in the Schedule in October 1993.
It is possible these stones are terminator stones for a stone row (1).
