Situated in a hollow with rough pasture in an area of rock outcrop and at the E edge of a marshy basin. Two features are depicted on the 1835 and the revised 1944 editions of the OS 6-inch map that are described as ‘Standing Stones’ on both. A single upright conglomerate slab (dims 0.32m x 0.35m; H 1.7m) orientated N-S remains upright. A second stone (L 2m; Wth. 0.7m; T 0.25m plus) 9m to the S is now prone, but in the 1944 it was upright (OSFM).
The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Leitrim' compiled by Michael J. Moore (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2003). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
