The National Monuments Service's description
On a NW-facing slope, in pasture. Monument identified during ASI fieldwork. A limestone standing stone (0.4m x 0.3m; H 1.3m), rectangular in plan and orientated NE-SW. It tapers at the top to a point. The standing stone has a rough surface, except where it has been abraded by cattle and there is a depression around the base of the stone due to cattle erosion. An enclosure (TS059-126----) and a standing stone (TS059-160----) are located c. 110m to the S and c. 150m to the E respectively.
