What is recorded here
Edenakill is in County Louth, Ireland, where a standing stone still stands. Whether it marked a boundary, a burial or a meeting place remains unclear. The stone may have watched herds pass, children play or strangers lose their way. Its purpose has faded, but its shape remains visible in the local landscape.
