What is recorded here
Described by Kinahan (1884, 230 (stone B)) as 'a large roundish mass of granite, its more conspicuous face sloping nearly due south, and on it are five cups more or less obliterated by weathering.' The location indicated by Kinahan (1884, 231) was inspected by ASI in 1990, however this stone was not located.
