Situated near Lough Inchiquin, it consists of five low megaliths beside a large standing stone. The standing stone is ten feet (3 m) high and the circle is eight feet (2.4 m) in diameter. The centre of the circle has been dug out by treasure seekers. There are a number of other monuments nearby, including a multiple stone circle and some boulder burials.[1][2]
