The National Monuments Service's description

In level pasture, on the E side of the valley of the Slaheny River. An upright rectangular stone slab (H 2.1m; Wth at base 1.2m x 0.3m) orientated N-S. An ogham inscription on the E face, to the S of the centre, was read by Macalister (1945, vol. 1, 221) as: …..OTTINN MAQI VEC(R)… . A shallow depression on the top left-hand side of the E face and a missing section at the bottom left-hand corner of the same face may have also carried an ogham inscription.

The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Kerry. Volume I: South-West Kerry' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
