The National Monuments Service's description
On a roadside grass margin, now mounted on a concrete kerb. Locals say the stone (H 1.1m; Wth 0.4m; T 0.2m) was much larger and has been relocated to its present site.
The above description has been derived from D. Lavelle (compiler), An Archaeological Survey of Ballinrobe and District including Lough Mask and Lough Carra. Lough Mask and Lough Carra Tourist Development Association (1994), No. 56.
