The National Monuments Service's description
On the OS maps this stone appears to be marked a little NW of its actual position. It stands in rough wet pastureland on the N slopes of Flemingstown mountain, at the head of the Kilduff valley. It is a low, thin slab measuring 1.18m x an average of .18m at base, and tapering slightly to a rounded top at a height of 1.05m; E-W.
The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 106. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
