Dear me - an entry about an often overlooked monument that has unfortunately been overlooked in Peer Review! 
This looks fine to me - succinct, but containing all the necessary information.
Would anyone else care to comment?

Hello Jimi.
Can you describe the monument? All you say is that it is five-foot high (should that be five-foot-high?) and that it is made of limestone. Is it a plain pillar? Is there an inscription?

I honestly don't know how to describe it.

Looks like a plain limestone pillar with a square cross-section and an inscription to me.
