Blue Cairn of Ladieswell Recumbent Stone Circle.
From Canmore17000:
The dominant feature of this recumbent stone circle is the large mound of stones within the ring. The orthostats of the ring are interdigitated with the kerb of the cairn, which measures about 23m in overall diameter by up to 1.5m in height. The recumbent block (2) on the SSW, albeit missing its flankers measures about 3.6m in length by 0.9m in height and its even summit is set roughly horizontal. Of the orthostats, four remain on the SE, one leaning steeply (4) and the other three fallen (5–7). They were probably set out at intervals of about 3m and may have graded into the run of large kerbstones that demarcates the E side of the cairn. Elsewhere, a stumpy upright pillar (8) stands within the margin of the cairn on the NNE, while two slabs lying fallen on NW (9) and WSW (10) respectively may be small orthostats rather than kerbstones.
