This denuded stone circle is the smaller of 2 circles within 500' of each other on the Isle of Tiree. It has a diameter from c.33m x 40m. There are several stumps and a number of stones appear to have been removed. One lies near the circle.

There is the suggestion of a low 14m diameter central mound but it's antiquity has not been substantiated. The second circle lies to the SSW.
