In rough upland grazing, on a mantle of blanket bog, on a SE-facing slope on the SE foothills of Miskish Mountain. This standing stone (1.07m x 0.6m; H 1.17m) is irregular in plan and section and is orientated N-S. The standing stone narrows in thickness and width as it rises to the top. There is a relict field boundary (CO115-120001-) c. 30m to the N and another standing stone (CO115-117----) is situated c. 70m to the SW.
The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009).
