This impressive stone stands 20m to the NE of the chambered cairn (NF76NE 4). It is aligned E and W and measures 1.15m in breadth by 0.35m in thickness at the base and 2.5m in height. Its N face is rounded and weathered and its S face, though now also weathered, has been split from rock. Stones lie around its foot, some of which may be chocking stones, but others are no more than modern clearance.
