recuiubent stone is 3 feet 9 inches ; ami it almost certainly was one of the original 

 stones of the circle. Between 106 and 107 are two stones — one on top of the 

 other. There is a small stone between 111 ami 112. Between 113 and 1 there 

 is a pile of small water-worn stones, one on top of the other, obviouslv modem. 



It may finally be added that the gi-eat majority of these stones are 

 limestone. Some, like the "Eonadh," are of conglomerate.

SitALL Stoxe Circle (see figs. 3 and 10). 



In the next field to the large circle just described are two groups of stones, 

 the first of which is a circle of the oi-dinary type — that is to say, it consists 

 of a ring of stones separated by appreciable distances and without an 

 embankment of any kind. This eiicle lies to the north of the large circle 

 '• B," and varies between 53 and 57 feet (average 55 feet) in diameter. 



As already stated, the gallaun A bears fi'om the centre of the circle over 

 the centre of stone No. 3, 55° 48", and the distance fiom the centre to the 

 south-west angle of the gallaun is 1139 feet 5 inches. The bearing from the 

 centre of this circle to the centre of Circle A, over No. 10 stone, is 208° WW'. 

 The distance Ijetween the centres of these two circles is 419 feet 91 inches. 

 As will be seen from the diagram, it consists of fifteen stones. The plan shows 

 the length and breadth of these stones, and their distance from one another, 

 and their description will accordingly be completed by the following notes : — 

 ri'. Placed at the magnetic north and more or less rounded. Con- 

 glomerate. Height, 3 feet 10 inches. 

 (2). Shaped like the end of a mansard-roof and split i-adiaUy. Con- 

 glomerate. Height, 3 feet 8 inches. 

 (3). Irr^ilar, rounded limestone. Height, 3 feet 1 inch. 

 (4). Squarish and tabular. Conglomerate. Height, 3 feet. 

 (5). Triangular and slightly tangential, but circular with projecting 



internal flange. limestone, height, 4 feet. 

 (6). Low recumbent stone. Conglomerate. Height, 2 feet 9 inches.
