The National Monuments Service's description

In poor land, on a small bog island (diams. c. 100m) which is covered with lazy-beds. Between two of the lazy-beds is a small circle of upright stones (int. diam. 1.3m; H 0.15m) forming the kerb of an isolated hearth. The level interior is packed with stones.
