There are a great many of them, or there were: a survey published in the Archaeological Survey of Ikerrin recorded 245 standing stones across the townlands of Timoney Hills and Cullaun, of which 70 had already been removed, along with five cairns. By 1934-36, when the Inspector of National Monuments mapped and catalogued what remained, 221 stones were still standing, 173 in Timoney Hills and 48 in Cullaun. The stones range from roughly 0.9 to 1.8 metres above ground, with the larger ones averaging around 1.5 metres. What makes the grouping genuinely difficult to interpret is that they appear to follow no particular arrangement, with one exception: a single stone circle in Cullaun stands out amid the otherwise irregular scatter.

The 1936 Inspector described the surviving group as "a most remarkable" one, and the numbers alone make it unusual in an Irish context. But the site carries a complication that archaeology has not fully resolved. These stones sit within the landscaped estate of Timoney Park, the former property of the Parker-Hutchinson family, and that setting has led some researchers to question whether the monuments are genuinely ancient or whether some, or all, of them were arranged or introduced during the improvement of the estate grounds. The doubt is not resolved by the stones' material: red sandstone and conglomerate are consistent across the group, which could suggest a single origin, ancient or otherwise. The specific stone documented here under the reference 5W1 adds a further layer of uncertainty; no surface remains are now visible at the location where it was marked on the 1934-36 map, making it one of an unknown number of stones that have quietly disappeared from a collection already diminished before it was ever properly counted.
