Seven Stones of Hordron Edge

Hi George.
Had a bimble up to Hordron Edge today to check out what Bladup named "The outlier". This lays at around 220 degrees SSW from the circle at roughly 70 paces. Could it be anything significant ?

Cheers.

The circle is at SK21540 86845 btw. :)

HSD , as the circle is 15-16 min diameter an outlier even at 70 paces (approx 70 metres ) couold be measured from extreme edges and provide a difference of 12 -18 degrees .Assuming the 220 is from the centre then the winter solstice sunset is about 227 (spur to the south east of the top of Win Hill ) so therefore potentially aligned from the circle if not the centre . If it is visible on GE and a good co -ordinate can be got all the better .Judging by the map the outlier is slightly downhill from the circle , is it below the horizon ? .
