The National Monuments Service's description
In pasture, on a S-facing slope. A weathered limestone upright (Wth 0.6m; T 0.5m; H 1.47m), with its long axis aligned E-W. Its side profiles (N & S) are rectangular and taper slightly towards the top, but its end profiles (E & W) bulge towards the centre and come to a point at the top. An indentation on the top, near its E end, appears to be a natural occurrence.
