The National Monuments Service's description
On a gentle SE-facing slope on a broad plateau. A stone upright (dims 0.3m x 0.15m; H 1.45m) aligned E-W is propped up with spalls. A line of slabs extends S (L 5.8m) with collapsed slabs to the E forming a rectangular channel (Wth 1.3m), perhaps natural.
The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Leitrim' compiled by Michael J. Moore (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2003). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
