The monument known as Steinacleit is a confusing one and was at one time thought to be a chambered cairn, surrounded by a roughly oval stone setting 82m by 60m. The supposed cairn lies just within the southwest side of this enclosure and measures about 16m in diameter with what appear to be eleven kerb-stones still in positioni towards the south-east edge of the enclosure, there is a standing stone. Another standing stone, Clach Stei Lin, can be seen about 165m to the north, and Clach an Trushal (no. 77) is visible in the distance to the west.
