The National Monuments Service's description
In level pasture. A limestone standing stone (H0.88m x 0.55m; H 2.1m), rectangular in plan and orientated NNW-SSE, with Galtee Mountains to the SSE. It leans slightly to the W. There is a depression around the base of the stone due to cattle erosion and there is evidence of cattle rubbing on the angles of the stone.
