I actually found this by walking up from the farmhouse and studying the map very hard.....needless to say i found several other "circles" on my way.

It does not look like a circle and it was only on using the TMA and the Bodmin Moor survey book that I recognised it.

Leskernick complex - Northern Stone Circle - 3.4.2003

Don’t ask me to explain how I found this because I’m not sure it was very logical. And later, from the slopes of Leskernick Hill I thought I’d spotted it again, but then promptly ‘lost’ it again. It isn’t very obvious. I'll do a drawing of it soon.....
