"...within which a circle of stone piers (bearing a resemblance to the spokes of a wheel)...". This is hard for the reader to envisage, as the spokes of a wheel are radial and would presumably refer to horizontal members of a structure, if it were circular in plan.--Wetman (talk) 20:55, 10 August 2008 (UTC)Reply

Yes, the stones are radial and horizontal. Ben Mac Dui 19:26, 16 August 2008 (UTC)Reply
