The National Monuments Service's description
In the SW area of an irregularly shaped field, on a SW-facing slope. A possible standing stone (Wth c. 0.3m; H c. 0.9m) was noted in this field where archaeological test excavation took place in 2003 prior to a proposed development. The possible standing stone is described as being roughly square in section and is orientated NE-SW. Subsequent topsoil stripping around the recorded location of the possible standing stone in 2004 revealed no identifiable archaeological features. Two subcircular features (CO067-092----) were identified and subsequently excavated within the proposed development area. (Moloney and Gleeson 2003; Moloney 2007)
The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009).
