The circle has been covered by soil to protect it but you can see the tops of the stones. Its not what you expect to find in a housing scheme or by a Fire Station.

A small diversion into a housing estate cul-de-sac. An ancient stone circle in the middle of a modern housing estate is probably a rare item.
