What is recorded here

Four stones stand on a Kerry ridge, spaced metres apart like marks in a sentence nobody finished. They face the Paps of Dana and Sliabh Luachra, as if waiting for someone to read the sky. The smallest stone sits beside a buried quartz glint, suggesting a place where observation, not burial, was the point.

In pasture, on top of an E-W ridge with views to the N and S over Sliabh Luachra and to the Paps of Dana to the S. A group of four standing stones of varying height and orientation are located c. 28m to the W of a standing stone (KE059-028----). The NE stone (H 0.82m; 0.5m x 0.35m) is 3.35m NE of the second stone (H 1.16m; 0.55m x 0.23m); the third stone (H 0.77m; 0.45m x 0.45m) is a further 0.77m to the SW of the second stone; the fourth stone (H 0.6m; 0.55m x 0.3m) is 3.1m to the SSE of third stone. A quartz stone is embedded in the ground beside the fourth stone. Compiled by: Elizabeth Byrne, Ursula Egan and Sheila Ronan, Archaeological Survey Unit, University College, Cork.
