On W facing slope of a high ridge, with excellent views. A large granite boulder (L 2.25m; Wth >1.5m (partially buried); T 0.9m) positioned alongside a field fence. It is likely that most of the broad surface (presently upright and facing W), if not all was the exposed upper surface of a flat boulder. This surface is quite irregular with natural undulations and hollows. Concentrated at the opposite corners are 6 cup marks.
