Glenleigh stands in a pasture 4km east of Millstreet. This is a five stone circle although only four stones remain, the west side stone being missing. In addition to the missing side stone the eastern portal stone has been displaced and presently lies leaning against the surviving side stone. The surviving portal stone is presently the tallest at 1.1m, the circle axis is aligned NE-SW with an internal measurement of around 3.4m. The axial stone is wide and low with a prominent central hump.
