In rough hill pasture, on the lower N-facing slopes of Tooreennamna Mountain and with views N over Ardgroom Harbour. A rectangular boulder (1.05m N-S; 0.8m E-W; H 0.45m), orientated NNE-SSW, rests on five support-stones, one on the N side, two on the W side and two on the E side, one of which is augmented with a pad-stone. The largely smooth and level top of the boulder is 0.08m above the ground. There is a standing stone (CO102-040001-) 0.5m to the S.
