Surrounding the whole are the appearances of several concentric circles of considerable dimensions, but most of the stones have been carried away "bide Statistical account" circles not sufficiently defined to be shown. There is 11 standing and 3 lying stones. A little to the south west of the stones there is a circle formed of stones and earth "Known in Sutherlandshire as Hut Circle".
