There is no grand alignment, no clear astronomical geometry, just a dispersal of red sandstone and conglomerate slabs across two adjoining townlands that has puzzled observers for decades. By 1936, when the Inspector of National Monuments made a thorough record of the site, 221 stones were still standing or lying prostrate across Timoney Hills and Cullaun. A later survey, published by Stout in 1984, counted 245 stones in total, though 70 had by then been removed, along with five cairns that once accompanied them. What remains is one of the largest concentrations of standing stones in Ireland, and one of the least understood.

The 1936 Inspector's report is candid about the difficulty of interpreting the site. The stones, he noted, are not arranged on any particular system, with the sole exception of one stone circle in the Cullaun townland. They range from roughly 0.9 to 1.8 metres in height, all of the same local red sandstone or conglomerate material. The particular stone recorded here measures 1.1 metres high and sits rectangular in section, orientated on a NNW-SSE axis, with a second stone standing just five metres to its north-east. Notably, there are no packing stones visible around its base, which would ordinarily help anchor and date a deliberately erected prehistoric monument. That absence, combined with the stones' location within the landscaped grounds of the Parker-Hutchinson estate at Timoney Park, has led to a degree of scepticism about whether all or some of the stones are genuinely ancient rather than ornamental features introduced during estate improvement. The question has not been definitively resolved, and the site carries that ambiguity alongside its undeniable scale.
