Almsworthy Common stone setting
In l920s this was interpreted as two concentric ellipses with an inner circle of four remaining stones. But in l939 it was reinterpreted as a rectilinear stone setting, maybe two or three parallel stone rows. The stones are small. It is sited on a hillside looking down to Chetsford water just off the Macmillan way. There are 15 stones, three with a stone nearby which may be fallen portion. Remains of a nearby hut circle suggest that the hut, at least, was in woodland.
