The National Monuments Service's description
On a steep S-facing slope overlooking a shelf on the S-facing slope of Corrie Mountain. Rectangular stone (dims. c. 1m x c. 1m; H c. 0.5m) with a flat upper surface lying on the ground c. 5m E of the Mass rock (RO002-001----). It is probably a mass-rock, the name being derived from 'Clogh beannaithe', the blessed stone.
