The National Monuments Service's description
In level pasture, on the N bank of the Glanmore River. A roughly rectangular stone slab (1.12m x 0.4m; L 4m) lies on the ground where it appears to have fallen. The N end of the stone rests on a low roughly circular stony mound (diam. c. 2.4m; H 0.4m) on top of which is a possible packing-stone. A megalithic structure (KE111-006----) is c. 2.5m to the NW.
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.
