The National Monuments Service's description

In pasture, on a gentle S-facing slope, to the NW of Riverstick. This monument constitutes the site of a cross-inscribed stone. According to local information, a cross-inscribed stone was formerly located at a mass-rock (CO098-082----). There is no visible trace of the mass-rock due to land reclamation. The cross-inscribed stone was moved to its present location (CO098-081----) c. 400m to the NE, where it is set into the external face of the E wall of a farm building.

The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009).
