In rough hill pasture, on a W-facing slope overlooking the valley of the Dromoghty River. A stone slab (1.5m x 1.5m; T 0.35m) rests on a smaller stone (H 0.4m) causing the wider S end to rest on the ground and raising the narrower N end to 1.3m above ground level. An upright stone (H 0.4m; 0.4m x 0.15m) stands c. 1m to the NE. The structure is accompanied by an assortment of leaning and prostrate stones. A relict field boundary (KE102-097003-) lies c. 50m to the NW and a cairn (KE102-097001-) c. 20m to the S.
