Standing stone

What is recorded here

Cloghlea Rock is a standing stone in County Clare, Ireland. It still rises from the earth after centuries of rain and foottraffic. People may have gathered there to mark a boundary, honour a dead person or watch the horizon. The rock remains clear while human memory fades around it.
