'The standing stone (KE030- 028----) marks the north-western extent of a low earthen sub-circular mound which measures 28.0m E-W by 14.5m N-S. The southern side of the site has been cut by the construction of the ringfort (KE030-029----). At its highest the mound attains a maximum height of 1.0m. This site is grass covered and slopes sharply to the surrounding ground level at north.'
