Standing stone in Drumlave

Standing stone

What is recorded here

Standing stone in Drumlave is a rectangular stone set in pasture beside Adrigole church, small enough to touch but old enough to have watched the valley change. Its flat face and east-west line suggest people once stood before it rather than past it, perhaps marking a boundary, a memory or a warning. The ridge still holds it upright, preserving the shape of human attention long after the names and events have faded.
In pasture, on a S-sloping ridge to the N of Adrigole church. This standing stone (1.1m x 0.62m; H 1.05m) is rectangular in plan and is orientated E-W. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009). Date of upload: 22 December 2009
