The stones rise barely twenty centimetres above the surface, tracing a rough circle about five metres across, with a gap of two metres opening to the east. There is no coursed stonework, no evidence of mortar or deliberate construction technique; just an irregular scatter of remnant stones that once formed something more substantial.

What that something was remains genuinely uncertain. The stones may be the last vestiges of a small enclosure, the kind used to pen animals or mark a boundary, or they may be the collapsed outer wall of a house. The site sits on a slight rise within otherwise level ground, with a low rock outcropping breaking the surface to the south. It does not stand alone in this landscape: two earthen mounds, known as Bailey Beag and Bailey Mór, lie 65 metres to the north and 75 metres to the south respectively, suggesting this corner of the island once held a cluster of activity whose precise nature is now difficult to read. The monument is in state ownership and holds National Monument status, which at least ensures that whatever the stones represent, they will not be disturbed further while the question of their origin remains open.
