The National Monuments Service's description
In rough pasture, on a W-facing slope with a view W over the valley as far as Mount Gabriel. According to local information, this possible standing stone (H c. 1m) stands in a flat meadow. Surface drains along the field boundaries and limited surface clearance has taken place in the general area. There is no visible trace of this possible standing stone. However, this stone may be among some mounds of fairly recent field clearance stones that were noted against some of the field boundaries.
The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009).
