The National Monuments Service's description
In pasture, on a break on a NW-facing hillslope, overlooking the valley of the Owennashinguan River. According to local information, this possible standing stone (H 1.3m), which originally stood immediately outside the SW corner of a children's burial ground (KE119-103001-), was broken into pieces and removed in the mid-1960s. There is no visible trace of this possible standing stone.
The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009).
