The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on a W-E spur. Its location is marked only on the 1907 edition of the OS 6-inch map where it is described in gothic lettering as a ‘Standing Stone’. It is no longer extant and no description of it is known.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Monaghan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1986). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
