The standing stone measures just under a metre in height at 0.94m, with a width and thickness of 0.8m each, and is aligned along a north-northeast to south-southwest axis. Its companion stone, considerably longer at 2.94m, now lies fallen beside it, measuring 0.84m wide and 0.48m thick. Interestingly, portions of the fallen stone show unweathered surfaces, clear evidence that it too once stood vertical alongside its partner.

These stones occupy a low-lying position on level ground, typical of many prehistoric monuments in Donegal. While Ordnance Survey maps from the 6-inch series recorded both stones as standing, time and circumstance have toppled one of the pair. The exact date when the second stone fell remains unknown, though the contrast between its weathered and unweathered surfaces tells the story of its former upright position.

The stones form part of Donegal’s rich archaeological heritage, documented in the comprehensive Archaeological Survey of County Donegal compiled by Brian Lacey and colleagues in 1983. Like many standing stones across Ireland, their original purpose remains enigmatic; they may have served as territorial markers, commemorative monuments, or held ritual significance for the communities who erected them thousands of years ago.
