Instead, it leans against a field bank, a short distance from where it was once set upright, its original purpose quietly unresolved. Standing stones are among the most enigmatic monuments in the Irish landscape, usually dating to the Bronze Age and interpreted variously as boundary markers, ritual sites, or memorials, though in most cases no firm answer survives. This particular example has, at some point, been displaced from its socket and now rests at an angle against the earthen bank, close enough to its original location to suggest it was not taken far, but far enough to confirm it was moved.

The stone measures 1.7 metres in height, 0.8 metres wide, and 0.4 metres thick, and is thought to be limestone. That tentative identification matters a little, since limestone is not universally available across Wexford, and its presence at a site can sometimes hint at localised geology or deliberate selection. At 1.7 metres, it would have been a reasonably prominent upright when set in the ground, visible across a field even if not dramatically tall by the standards of some Irish examples. When exactly it fell or was toppled is not recorded.
