Standing stone in Ballinvoher

Standing stone

What is recorded here

Kilkenny farmland still holds the stone, though no human hand shaped it and no chamber remains beside it. It stands like a forgotten marker, perhaps dropped from a glacial ridge or left behind when the land shifted. People may have passed it for centuries, reading it as a boundary, a warning or a gift from the earth.
