Standing stone in Crooksling

No visible marker remains in Crooksling, though Ua Broin placed a large boulder on Saggart Hill near Lauranaree in 1957. That absent stone may have marked a boundary, a burial, a meeting place or merely resisted being moved. People forgot its exact spot because ordinary landscapes swallow unusual things. The missing stone still belongs to the hill, waiting for someone to stop asking whether it exists and begin looking for the place it occupied.
