The National Monuments Service's description

Marked only on the 1910 ed. of the OS 6-inch map where it is described in italic lettering as a ‘Pile of Stones’. It is located on a SE-facing slope of a broad plateau at a point where the lines of three unbuilt townland boundaries meet, with Aghavoghil to the N, Cullionboy to the SE and Gubinea to the SW. Lough Aganny is c. 200m to the WNW. This is a conical cairn with flush faces. The boulder marker (LE004-016002-) is c. 40m to the W.
