What is recorded here

Clonegall Stone is a circular enclosure in County Carlow, Ireland, with a standing stone still visible at its centre. The 1839 map drew a ring thirty-five metres across, but no trench has ever found the ditch or bank that ring implied. People may have walked a boundary now lost to soil and time, leaving only the stone to mark the middle of what vanished.

The following description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Carlow' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1993). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 17 July 2007 Shown on 1839 'OS 6-inch' map as circular enclosure (max. D c. 35m). No visible surface traces. Standing stone (CW023-023----) on site. First and subsequent descriptions of standing stone do not mention enclosure. (JRSAI 1965, 64-6).
