What is recorded here

In 1939 Captain Donal B. O'Connell recorded the following details; 'In the same wood [Killaclohane Wood] is a large table-like rock known as a Mass Rock [KE047-061----] and Rounds have evidently been "paid" there quite recently. The rock is bespattered with initials but I think I can trace pattern of sorts underneath' (SMR File). No inscribed stone could be found in the location marked on the OS 6-inch map. However the reference from Captain O'Connell seems to describe the mass rock (KE047-061---) as the inscribed stone.

From the National Monuments Service (Archaeological Survey of Ireland) record KE047-060
