I am a little uncertain about this monument. Firstly I am not sure of the townland. Secondly I am not sure that it is just a standing stone: I think it may be the very sad remains of a very ruined court tomb. The site is not marked on the OS map, nor does it appear in the monuments register.
The main stone is a little over 1m tall, 50cm thick and 1m wide. To the south of this stone there are several stones half-buried in the grass that could be fallen orthostats.
The location is quite special, occupying the top of a steep-sided rocky outcrop. The ground around it is very marshy and it may be possible that at one time it was surrounded by water.
