The National Monuments Service's description
Located c. 60m S of a river flowing roughly E-W. A cist discovered in 1991 when the capstone was exposed during ploughing. Beneath the capstone there is a stone-lined cist with evidence of human bones. The capstone (exposed dims. 0.77m N-S; c. 1m E-W) is in situ and is largely covered by sod. There is a possible standing stone (WA003-095----) c. 485m to the SSE.
