Pillar stone (present location) in Coinlín (cléire)

In the boundary of a field known locally as 'Gort Maoláin'. This pillar stone is known locally as 'Cloch Maoláin'. It was moved from its original location (CO153-019002-) on higher ground c. 6m to the N in 1951. In its original location, it was described by Conlon (1918, 58) as being 'only about one foot [0.3m] off the ground' and of 'circular shape….20 inches [0.5m] in diameter'. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009). Date of upload: 22 December 2009

Likely dating to the Neolithic or Bronze Age, the stone may have functioned as a boundary marker or ritual monument. Local tradition associates it with "Maolán," potentially reflecting early Christian or folkloric significance.
