What is recorded here
On SE slopes of Maughanaclea Hills. Large slab (L 2.8m; Wth 1.3m) resting on support stones at E and W ends. Locally known as a "mass rock". The location of the monument as indicated in the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 1: West Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1992) appears to be incorrect. The latest information locates it in the townland of Farnanes to the east.
