The National Monuments Service's description

Situated on a level landscape at the edge of the carpark of Drumeela Roman Catholic church. A sandstone block (dims of top 1.3m x 0.6m; H 1.05m) is set up on its narrow base and supported by low walls to the E and W. It had been moved from the bottom of a W-facing slope in Annagh townland c. 300m to E (LE030-050----) where it had lain prone.

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.
