The National Monuments Service's description
In an undulating stony field immediately N of Templecronan church (CL010-021002-). A subcircular area (int. dims. 14m N-S; 8.5m E-W) defined by a bank of mostly stone and some earth. Some roughly cut boulders form an internal stone facing at E (H 0.4m) and the external ground level is much lower. A slightly raised platform in the SW quadrant obscures the bank in this portion. There is a small extension attached at E defined by banks. A number of house platforms (CL010-021012-) lie to the N in the same field.
