Indicated

Standing stone

What is recorded here

Indicated is a subrectangular standing stone in West Cork, rising 2.8 metres from pasture with views in every direction. Its NE-SW alignment and broad 2.11-metre face suggest it marked a boundary, a path or a promise between people and the open sky. The surrounding land remains visible, unchanged in the way that matters: distance, horizon and the stone itself still meet without obstruction.
In pasture with good views in every direction. Subrectangular plan aligned NE-SW (H 2.8m; 2.11m x 0.91m). The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 1: West Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1992). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 14 January 2009
