The National Monuments Service's description
On top of a rise, in undulating pasture. An upright stone (H 1.45m; Wth 0.4m; T 0.3m), roughly rectangular in profile and section, with its long axis aligned N-S. Its edges have been worn smooth by cattle scratching against it. Cattle have also worn down the ground at its base, exposing two packing stones.
