This small slab-like standing stone stands on top of a natural knoll beside the road through Glen Lyon. Measuring around 1.2m tall by 0.5m wide, it varies in thickness from around 0.4m at the base to 0.15m at the top.

On either side of the stone are carved Christian crosses, the one on the north side being much the more prominent of the two.
