The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on level ground c. 80m W of a N-S stream. This is a stone with a rectangular cross-section (dims. 0.8m x 0.35m; H 1.6m) and a rounded top. On field inspection in 1989 this stone, oriented ENE- WSW, was leaning slightly to the NNW. According to Fourwinds (2007) this stone has now fallen over.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Waterford' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1999). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
