This ancient site, measuring roughly 7 metres east to west and 6.7 metres north to south, consists of a double ring of standing stones, or orthostats, with traces of cairn material filling the space between the inner and outer circles. The surviving structure includes approximately 18 orthostats forming the inner kerb, their heights ranging from half a metre down to just 20 centimetres, with the best preserved sections visible on the east;northeast side.

The true nature of this monument remains somewhat mysterious. The 75;centimetre;wide band of cairn material between the two rows of stones suggests it could be a ring;cairn, a type of Bronze Age burial monument common in Ireland. However, archaeologists have noted a 2.65;metre gap in the northeast section of the stone circle, which complicates the interpretation. Whilst this gap might simply be the result of stone robbing over the centuries, it could alternatively mark an original entrance, which would indicate this was actually a hut;circle, an ancient dwelling, rather than a burial site.

The monument’s current exposed state is likely due to recent land improvement works, where the removal of heather;covered sod has revealed these prehistoric remains. The poorly drained moorland setting would have been typical for such structures, whether ceremonial or domestic. Without clear evidence of an entrance feature, and given the presence of cairn material between the kerbs, the site most likely represents a ring;cairn, though the possibility of it being a hut site cannot be entirely dismissed. This ambiguity makes it all the more fascinating, offering a tangible link to the Bronze Age communities who once inhabited these windswept Donegal hills.
