Sunday, 27th August 2006

This is a fine standing stone. It has a rather elegant profile. Due to standing in a large area of very barren heath land it stands out exceptionally well and looks very imposing and proud. It is approximately 2m tall, pointed and 40cm across each side.

The site is dominated by Crohaun to the south, which reaches a height of 484m - some 140m above this stone's altitude.
