This used to be a circle of nine stones, but now there are four standing stones and two fallen stones still visible. A dry stone wall runs through the circle.

Partway up a hillside, 800 feet above Loch Tay, this site presents a wonderful view. Burl describes it as being in a fir plantation, but his description is somewhat out of date as there are now no trees around it.

The southern-most stone is the tallest at around five feet nine inches tall and the northwestern stone is a little under two feet tall.
