The National Monuments Service's description
'Marked as 'Standing Stone' on the 2nd edition of the OS 6-inch map but as 'Standing Stone (site of)' on the 3rd edition. However, in the immediate vicinity is a stone 2.12m long, projecting out of the ground at an angle so that one end is 1.18m above ground level. This may be the stone in question.
The above description was derived from the 'Archaeological Survey of County Donegal. A description of the field antiquities of the County from the Mesolithic Period to the 17th century.' Compiled by: Brian Lacey with Eamon Cody, Claire Cotter, Judy Cuppage, Noel Dunne, Vincent Hurley, Celie O'Rahilly, Paul Walsh and Seán Ó Nualláin (Lifford: Donegal County Council, 1983). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated.
