The National Monuments Service's description
In rough pasture, on the W side of a farm road, on a N-facing slope. This standing stone (0.27m x 0.16m; H 0.86m) is roughly rectangular in plan and section and is orientated E-W. The standing stone is frequently used as a stop for a farm gate and a small depression on its S face may be related to this function.
The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009).
