Some interesting rocks. They don’t appear to have any ancient rock art on them like some other sites on the moor but they do have a curious shape and position. Look out for the more modern trig point carving in one of the rocks. A good spot for a picnic.
Interesting set of stones. One has a benchmark on it.
