This is the smallest of the 4 Broomrigg circles. It lies 100 m to the south of Broomrigg A. It is a cairn circle, but only 4 of the original 7 stones remain; they form a small circle of diameter 3.4 m. Stones 2,3 & 4, all hard red stanstone, are erect; but no. 1, a light-coloured sandstone, has fallen. The circle was excavated in 1950, and the finds are in Carlisle Museum in Tullie House.
