Located on the E-facing slope of a drumlin and in a col with the summits of drumlins c. 450m to the NW and c. 300m to the E. It is just E of a nineteenth century farmyard. A line (L 5.6m) of five contiguous conglomerate boulders, one of which been displaced, is generally aligned N-S. From the S the stones are (dims 1m x 0.4m, H 0.5m; 0.9m x 0.4m, H c. 0.5m; 1m x 0.4m, H c. 0.5m; fallen 1m x 0.7m; dims 1m x 1m, H 0.6m).
