The National Monuments Service's description
A short length of relict field boundary (orientation SSW-NNE) visible for a distance of c. 20m was exposed by turf cutting. Only a single row of natural rocks are visible above the level of the existing bog surface. A boulder (KE071-113----) decorated with rock art lies a short distance to WNW and two other stones (KE071-059----/058----) decorated with rock art lie to E and ESE respectively.
