Standing stone in Kilteery

Standing stone

What is recorded here

Denis Power recorded the standing stone in Kilteery on 26 August 2011, preserving its shape and position before memory faded. The stone still leans north in pasture, its packing stones loosened but its line unbroken. Whatever it marked has disappeared, yet the stone remains clear about one thing: someone set it deliberately and walked away.
In undulating pasture, on an E-facing slope. An upright stone (H 1.2m; T 0.25m; Wth 0.3m), leaning slightly to the N, with its long axis aligned NE-SW. It is triangular in profile, tapering towards the top (Wth at top 0.17m). Packing stones are evident at its base, some of which have worked loose. Another stone (0.6m x 0.5m x 0.1m) lies on the ground immediately to the W. Compiled by: Denis Power Date of upload: 26 August 2011
