Climb over a gate by an abandoned cottage, then walk 50 or 60 yards downhill. The Standing Stone is in full view.
Although marked on the map, this site isn't anywhere nearly as well known as Legananny Dolmen, which is at the other end of the same road. I have only seen one photograph of this site on the web.
