Packing stones, deliberately placed around the foot of the monument to hold it upright, are still visible, offering a rare, unambiguous glimpse of the original effort that went into raising it. The stone itself is tall, rectangular in plan, and tapers toward the top, a form that would not look out of place across many prehistoric landscapes in Munster, yet here it sits quietly in a working field south of an old laneway, with little to announce it.

The stone was identified by Billy O'Brien of Kilfinnane, and the record was compiled by Caimin O'Brien from details provided by James and Billy O'Brien, with information uploaded in August 2020. It belongs to a loose cluster of three possible standing stones in close proximity, the others lying roughly 93 metres to the north-north-east and 280 metres to the west-north-west. Standing stones, erected upright in the landscape typically during the Bronze Age, were used for purposes that remain debated, including territorial marking, astronomical alignment, and ritual commemoration. What gives this cluster added context is its relationship to a broader concentration of monuments nearby. Approximately 360 metres to the north lies the Kilfinnane motte, a raised earthen mound built by Anglo-Norman settlers as the base for a timber or stone fortification, along with a separate standing stone also recorded in that vicinity. The density of monuments across this relatively compact area suggests the landscape has been meaningful, in different ways and to different peoples, across a very long span of time.

The stone is accessed from the old laneway and stands in flat pasture, so the approach is straightforward in terms of terrain, though as with most field monuments in agricultural use, it is worth being mindful of livestock and land boundaries. There is no formal visitor infrastructure here. The packing stones at the base are the detail to look for once you locate the monument, as they are what distinguishes this stone from a simple upright and connect it most directly to the hands that placed it. The wider cluster of stones in the area rewards a methodical approach with map or GPS coordinates in hand, since the individual monuments are not marked or signed and the flat ground offers few obvious landmarks.
