The National Monuments Service's description
Situated in an area of cut away bog with good views in all directions are the remains of a low upright stone (max. H 0.74m; Wth 0.7m; T 0.4m) which is roughly rectangular in section. Its long aixs is roughly orientated on a NW-SE axis. There is no evidence to suggest that this stone is a standing stone of prehistoric date. Appears to be a natural feature. There is no evidence of any packing stones around the base of the stone.
