What is recorded here

Annagap is a standing stone in a Kerry pasture, not a hidden chamber or finished religious room. The visible facts are a tall stone, a level field, nearby packing stones and a place where people once lived, breathed and remembered. The missing part is not a warning; it is an invitation to stop inventing and watch what the place actually shows.

This stone stands in a level pasture field less than a half-mile (.8km) NW of Anascaul village. It is 2.73m high and measures 2.26m x .86m at base; E-W. A number of packing stones are visible around the base. The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 69. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 3 August 2013
