What is recorded here
Ballyboneill once held two standing stones on E. Guerin's land, but human hands broke and removed them decades ago. They vanished completely, leaving no exact trace behind. Whatever they marked or meant is gone, erased by the same ordinary progress that keeps changing the face of Cork.
One of two standing stones (9887) recorded by Bowman (1934, 577) on E. Guerin's land; 'Broken and removed many years ago'. Exact location not known.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 4: North Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2000). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
