The National Monuments Service's description
Formerly incorporated into a field wall at the entrance to a farmyard a short distance SW of a possible Cistercian abbey (SL019-043001-). Recorded in 1994 as an oval stone with rounded edges (0.42m x 0.31m; T 0.15m). At one end of the flat upper surface is a small circular depression (diam. 0.18m; D 0.09m). This monument has been removed, believed stolen, since at least 2004.
