A standing stone 1.64m high × 1.02m wide × 0.7 to .9m thick. Another stone (DG082-001002-) is set at right angles to the first one. It may be that the original standing stone was broken and the broken part was re-erected beside the stump. Fagan (Bk. 21, 39) notes that there was said to be a cross on the S side and that it was said to be part of the Tober Connell stations. Situated in fair pasture land immediately N of the E end of the Loughros Beg inlet. The above description was derived from the 'Archaeological Survey of County Donegal. A description of the field antiquities of the County from the Mesolithic Period to the 17th century.'
