The National Monuments Service's description
OPW topographical files (1947) record a rough stone with a perforation (10cm by 5cm; D 7.5cm) close to one edge. Close to the opposite edge was a shallow hollow (diam. 10cm). There was a megalithic structure (MA040-063002-) 6.7m to S and a standing stone (MA040-063003-) 2.4m S of the latter. All three features were removed from their original locations and buried during land reclamation work.
