What is recorded here

Standing stone in Kilmaloge is a standing stone in Kilmaloge, County Tipperary, Ireland. The fractured limestone marker stands 1.5 metres high on the northeast edge of a gentle north-facing pasture ridge. A large portion at the north angle split away in the past, giving the rectangular stone an irregular profile while cattle erosion formed a depression around its base.

There are good views with Slievenamon Mountain to the E, the Knockmealdown Mountains visible beyond the hillslope to the S and the Galtee Mountains to the W. A badly spawled and fractured limestone standing stone (0.36m x 0.32m; H 1.5m) rectangular in plan and orientated NW-SE.
