Likely dating to the Late Neolithic or Early Bronze Age, the standing stone may have served a ceremonial or territorial function. No specific folklore or detailed local tradition is recorded for this site.

This remains an important historical record, but the official description says the monument is no longer visible or has been destroyed. The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
