The National Monuments Service's description

In mountainous overgrown terrain, on a break in a S-facing slope. Two upright stones, aligned N-S, stand 0.2m apart. A small stone is wedged between the bases of the N stone (0.88m x 0.36m; H 0.7m) and the S stone (1.2m x 0.26m; H 1.26m). A prostrate stone lies 9m to the E. Its relationship, if any, to the monument is unclear. The possibility that these stones might be the last remnants of another monument class cannot be excluded.

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