In rough pasture, on a ridge on the lower slopes of Knochanouganish Hill. This stone circle (diam. 8.5m) consists of nine pillar-like orthostats (L 0.35-1.3m; T 0.3-0.6m; H 1.15-2.1m). Two radially set stones form the entrance at NNE, the most easterly stone leaning to the W. The circle may originally have had eleven stones as the axial stone and one other stone are missing. A relict field boundary (KE109-003003-) lies c. 1m to the N. (Ó Nualláin 1984a, 30, no. 48)
