This tiny circle of four granite boulders and one possible outlying stone has been interpreted in the past as a pair of concentric circles. The current view is that it is a four poster (more common in Perthshire).

The circle is about ten feet across, the stones each standing about two feet high.

Despite the size, this is a very attractive site and well worth a visit.
