An upright limestone standing stone (0.4m x 0.27m; H 1.3m), rectangular in plan and orientated ENE-WSW. The stone leans towards the SSE and all faces have evidence of cattle wearing. There is a depression around the base of the stone due to cattle erosion. (O'Brien 2006, 16-17). Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 26 August 2011

Probably dating to the Late Neolithic or Bronze Age, this standing stone may have functioned as a territorial marker, ceremonial focus, or astronomical alignment point. Its placement on a prominent slope suggests a symbolic or ritual significance, possibly linked to landscape features or ancient pathways.
