Not marked on 1842 and 1904 OS 6-inch maps. In pasture, on gentle NE-facing slope. Stone (L 2.7m; 1m x c. 0.4m) is prostrate and almost covered by heavy overgrowth. In same position when recorded by Bowman (1934, 329), who noted number of grooved lines on one side; not now visible, probably due to overgrowth. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 4: North Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2000). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 14 January 2009
