What is recorded here

Mentioned in the Archaeological Survey of County Donegal, the standing stone in Carrowreagh OR Craignacally stands one metre high and one point seven five metres wide on Doagh Isle. It tilts northwest to southeast across arable land that slopes toward the shore, marking a boundary between human labour and ancient stone. The island has likely watched boats, storms and generations pass while the stone remains steady, a quiet witness to change.
