What is recorded here
Freestanding triangular-plan cut limestone milestone, erected c. 1870, having chamfered top and inscribed lettering which read: 'Loughill 4 / Tarbert 4 / Limerick 31'.
This simple piece of masonry served an important practical function in past navigation. Its rough hewn nature adds to its appeal, as does the inscribed lettering. Its survival is a testament to its significance as part of the street furniture within Limerick County.
