The stone recorded here is rectangular in plan with a tapering top, a fairly distinctive profile that sets it apart from the more irregular shapes common to such monuments. It sits immediately north of an old laneway, with the Glenduff Stream running nearby to mark the townland boundary with Kilfinnane. Standing stones, which are single upright slabs of stone erected during prehistory, most often in the Bronze Age, are common enough across Ireland, but finding three within a few hundred metres of each other, in otherwise unremarkable agricultural ground, raises the question of whether their arrangement was intentional.

The stone was identified by Billy O'Brien of Kilfinnane, and the record was compiled by Caimin O'Brien drawing on details provided by Billy and James O'Brien, with the information uploaded in August 2020. The two companion stones in the group, recorded separately in the Sites and Monuments Record, lie 287 metres to the east and 280 metres to the south-south-east respectively. That southern horizon is also where Kilfinnane motte sits, along with a further standing stone. A motte is an earthen mound, typically constructed by Anglo-Norman settlers in the twelfth or thirteenth century as the base for a timber fortification, which makes it considerably more recent than any of the standing stones. The fact that both prehistoric and medieval monuments cluster in this same stretch of ground may be coincidence, or it may reflect the long-term significance of the landscape around the Glenduff Stream.

Access to this stone and its neighbours is from the old laneway mentioned in the record, which runs along the southern edge of the pasture. The ground is flat, which makes spotting the stone relatively straightforward once you are in the right field, though as with most monuments in agricultural land, the courtesy of asking local permission before crossing private ground applies. The proximity of all three stones to one another means it is worth taking time to locate each in turn, and the nearby motte at Kilfinnane adds further context to a walk through what turns out to be a surprisingly monument-dense corner of County Limerick.
