Location: NF 842 650
This is the best-known, most accessible stone circle in the Uists.
It appears to have been constructed on a large artificial platform overlooking Loch Langais, dug in to the hillslope to the rear and built up to the front. The ring itself measures 38m x 28m, with the long axis running approximately east-west. There are about 24 standing stones and boulders surviving in the ring, with a pair of portal stones forming an entrance at either end.
