The southwest stone seen from the northeast.


This stone row was a beautiful surprise. We followed the road to reach the red dot on the map and it was worth it.
The stone row is on the boundary between two fields, concealed in a row of trees. Two stones of the row are standing, another stone lies on the ground. The row is aligned along the northeast-southwest (60°-240°) axis, with the tallest stone being at the southwest end.
This stone is 2.34 metres tall and about 1.35 metres wide. The other stone is 1.12 metres tall and 94 centimetres wide at the base, tapering a bit towards the top.
The two stones are 3.70 metres apart with some small stones from field clearance in the middle. Another tall stone lies on the ground at the northeast end of the row past a tree.
