The National Monuments Service's description
Situated towards the bottom of a gentle S-facing slope. An early ecclesiastical site which may have had an oval ecclesiastical enclosure (WA008-030002-) originally, but this is now truncated at S by an E-W field bank. A D-shaped bullaun stone of Old Red Sandstone conglomerate (dims. 0.4m x 0.33m) with a single basin (diam. 0.3m; D 0.15m) which is truncated at one side is built into the W face of the E wall of a NNW-SSE lane immediately to the W of the enclosure.
