The stone circle is atop a plateau above the valley overlooking Loch Inchiquinn, the other side lough Cloonee Upper and is surrounded by a ring of mountains. The 8' diameter circle consists of approximately five low small megalith locally sourced sandstone stones (1.2-1.8 meters high) with a significant 3 meter high (approx. 10') monolithic outlier standing stone. Two of the stones are portal stones (one leaning outwards).
