The National Monuments Service's description
Situated just off the crest of the E-facing slope of a wide N-S col with summits c. 400m to the SW and c. 700m to the NNW. This is an early ecclesiastical site consisting largely of an ecclesiastical enclosure (WA002-048003-). There is no evidence of a church structure (WA002-048001-) or of a graveyard (WA002-048002-), but three bullaun stones of Old Red Sandstone conglomerate are at the site, and a fourth may be missing.
A triangular stone (dims. 0.4m x 0.38m; T 0.16m) with a single basin (dims. 17-19cm; D 6cm) is on the inner face of the bank of ecclesiastical enclosure (WA002-048003-) at W.
