The site consists of two standing stones, one large and one small in a private garden. The largest one is closest to the house and some garden trees are almost blocking it from view although it is still visible from the road. The smaller one is next to the driveway just next to the local road.
The largest stone closest to the house is 2 metres in height and around 1 metre wide at the base and 20-30cm thick. It is almost triangular in shape and the top ends in a point. It has some ivy and garden trees growing in front that blocks some of the view from the road. The smaller stone is in a lawn and is only around 60cm in height and 40cm wide and almost rectangular. The top is flat.
