What is recorded here

Grawky is a hidden standing stone in County Donegal, marked only on old maps and stripped of visible remains today. It stood on a north-south ridge, perhaps guiding travellers or marking a boundary before the land swallowed it back. The stone may have fallen, been buried or simply vanished from memory, leaving behind a name and a quiet absence.
