The little knoll that this stone crowns and its shape tend to suggest that it may well have been part of a court tomb at one time, but that is unlikely. This is one of those stones that looks amazingly different from every angle. From one side it look 'blocky' and from the front it is very pointed. There is a rectangular lump on the flattest face, which looks like a little doorway into the stone.
It is 1.5m tall, 1m wide and 80cm or so thick.
