The stone lies at the end of a field and close to a small wood. A small building housing a mast stands a few metres to the SW and the railway track passes a few metres further on.
The stone is visible from the road and the site can be reached via a gate but this is private land and permission should be sought to enter the field. The proportions of the stone are similar to that of the Bron Eifion stone. It stands at 1.2m with a width of 1m and a depth of 0.65m.
Interestingly, a possible cist burial has been discovered in the next field to the west.
