By the time the second edition was produced, the site had lost even its title, appearing as merely an unnamed feature. Today, no visible remains exist at the location, leaving only the cartographic record as evidence of what once stood here.

The absence of physical remains raises intriguing questions about what happened to this prehistoric monument. Standing stones, which typically date from the Bronze Age period (roughly 2500 to 500 BC in Ireland), were erected for various purposes; some marked burial sites, others served as territorial boundaries, whilst many likely held ritual or astronomical significance. The fact that this particular stone warranted inclusion on the earliest detailed surveys of the area suggests it was once a prominent feature in the local landscape, visible enough to catch the attention of 19th-century surveyors working their way across Donegal’s rugged terrain.

The loss of such monuments is unfortunately common across Ireland, with stones being removed for building materials, broken up for field clearance, or simply toppling and becoming buried over time. The ridge location at Grawky would have made the stone particularly vulnerable to weather and erosion. What remains certain is that this spot was once deemed important enough by prehistoric peoples to erect a standing stone, creating a focal point in the landscape that endured for millennia before disappearing sometime between the Victorian era and today.
