In rough pasture interspersed with heather and gorse and occasional outcropping rock, on a N-facing slope overlooking Bantry Bay. This mass-rock, which comprises a cuboid-shaped stone slab (2.5m E-W; 1.2m N-S; H 0.75m), lies at the foot of the N face of E-W outcropping rock. An inscribed stone, lying beside the mass-rock, commemorates the site and records that mass was again celebrated on the 17th of May 2000. A series of white poles marks a path through the hillside from the nearby road.
