What is recorded here
One gallaun still stands in boggy Iveragh pasture, a broad low slab rather than a proud pillar. The second stone recorded nearby has vanished from later mapping, leaving the original intent blurred: a pair, an alignment, or a mistaken mark. What remains is a quiet witness on a gentle slope, the kind of place where human hands may have set a boundary, a memory, or a direction through difficult terrain.
In pasture, on gentle N-facing slope. No visible surface trace.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 2: East and South Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1994). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
