The circle comprises a ring of standing stones positioned on moorland, typical of the ceremonial and possibly astronomical monuments erected during the later prehistoric period. Stone circles of this type were constructed and utilised over an extended period during the Bronze Age, serving functions related to communal gathering, ritual practice, and possibly calendrical observation.
