What is recorded here
Melted edge,holed stone:0.71 m wide,0.16 m hole,granite,set deep in Castledermot ground,possibly a mill stone. Children pulled clothing through the hole and emerged marked by the dataset of the town. Adults refused to admit the hole was large enough for a child. The stone does not argue. It waits for bodies that can be remade.
Holed stone (diam. 0.71m; diam. of hole 0.16m). Granite. Set deeply in ground (may possibly be a mill-stone). (Bradley et al. 1986, vol. 2, 103-04)
