Internal diam. 16.35m N-S, 14.45m E-W. A subcircular area enclosed by the grassed-over remains of a stone wall. The wall facings are evident at some points and at the W suggest an original width of 1.8m. A modern wall is built on the older foundation along the entire E half. Just SE of the centre is a triangular piece of rock outcrop (DG080-026002-) .95m × 0.95m × 0.9m, .42m high. A depression .2m × 0.17m, depth .08m is crudely carved in this. The site is located on a knoll of rock outcrop on the SW part of the Glen-columbkille valley floor.
