This ancient monolith stands amidst a complex network of stone walls and enclosures, many of which lie buried beneath the peat or emerge partially from the bog’s surface. The site presents a fascinating puzzle for archaeologists, as it’s impossible to determine whether all these features date from the same period or represent different phases of human activity across the centuries.

The area divides into distinct zones, each revealing different aspects of this ancient settlement. South of a modern field boundary, which likely incorporated stones robbed from the older structures, lies a series of interconnected walls and small field enclosures. Some sections remain buried up to a metre deep in the bog, discovered only through careful probing, whilst others are visible in turf cuttings around the bog’s edges. This southern complex includes two small oval cairns measuring 6m × 4m and 8m × 3m respectively, alongside what appears to be a large semicircular arrangement of stones, approximately 32 metres in diameter, though its southern portion has largely vanished.

North of the modern boundary, the landscape becomes even more intriguing. Three additional standing stones form a rough north to south alignment west of the main monolith, whilst a substantial circular stone enclosure, roughly 35 metres across, dominates the area. This enclosure features an internal wall dividing it into unequal portions; two thirds to the east and one third to the west, with the dividing wall stopping short of the southern perimeter by about 6 metres. Several smaller enclosures cluster both inside and outside this main structure, connected by stretches of field walls extending in multiple directions. The entire complex sits on a small hill approximately 400 metres east of Knockergrana Court tomb and 250 metres from a cup marked boulder, suggesting this location held significance for multiple generations of prehistoric inhabitants.
