In a low-lying boggy area on the valley floor of Gleann Glaise a short distance to N of the Bealnabrack River. Comprises four white quartz stones, aligned N-S, and measuring 7m overall. The first and third stone, from N to S, have fallen but the original heights appear to have been variable (c. 0.9m, 0.9m, c. 1.5m, 0.75m).
