The National Monuments Service's description

On a gentle SW-facing slope in undulating upland terrain. A field boundary which ran N-S immediately E of the standing stone has been cleared and the field reclaimed. A red sandstone conglomerate, rectangular in plan (dims. L 0.95m; Wth 0.47m; H 1.26m) and aligned NNW-SSE. It stands in a hollow caused by cattle poaching. There are no visible packing stones around base which has a grassy hummock at the SE end and a low hummock along the E side. The upper portion of the NE face has spawled creating a slight ledge across this face.
