The National Monuments Service's description
Site not located due to heavy afforestation. Myler (1998, 78) records that 'this stone stands near the western edge of the woodland south of the road. It has a NE-SW axis and measures 8 ft. high, 4 ft. wide and 1.5 ft. in thickness'.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 1: West Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1992). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
