In pasture, on SE facing slope. DeValéra and Ó Nualláin (1964, p. xiii, note no. 3) assessed this group of stones as follows: 'The monument marked 'Memorial Stones' on 6" Sheet 120, in Nymphfield Townland consists of three large standing stones and a fourth smaller stone, perhaps collapsed. One of the standing stones, incorporated in a fence, is .90 m. by .80 m. and 1.60 m. high. The second stone stands 3.00 m. NE of the last and is 1.20 m. by .70 m. and 1.3 m. high. The third standing stone is 4.2 m. south of the last and 2.4m from the first stone. It is 1.2 m. by 1.00 m. and 1.7m. High. The fourth stone, which lies to the east of the standing stones is 0.7 m. by .25 m. and 0.2m m. high. The nature of the monument is doubtful but it cannot, on present evidence, be accepted as a megalithic tomb.'
