The National Monuments Service's description
Described by Quinn and Carroll (2010) as ‘a possible standing stone located in pasture land to the E/NE of the huts (39). It is a small stone measuring 0.5m in height. It is possible that the base of the stone is sod covered and that its original height is larger than the visible section.'
