The National Monuments Service's description
Located on a rise at the W end of a prominent E-W ridge. This upright stone (dims 0.5m E-W; 0.15-0.27m N-S; H 1.35m) is cut fairly square but the top has been damaged on the N side.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Meath' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1987). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
