What is recorded here

Leagaun is a standing stone on a north-facing pasture slope in County Limerick, where two limestone boulders still mark the earth despite scrub creeping across them. The larger rises ninety centimetres beside a smaller companion to the southeast, facing open views toward the northwest and southeast. A person may have set them there to judge weather, claim a boundary or remember an event now lost. The name Leagaun has survived on maps since 1923, carrying that forgotten purpose forward.

Situated on a N-facing slope in pasture, with good views to the NW and SE. The monument is partially obscured by scrub overgrowth. It consists of a limestone boulder (H 0.9m; Wth 0.8m; Th. 0.45m) with a smaller limestone boulder (Wth c. 0.3m NW-SE; H c. 0.5m) immediately to the SE. Named 'Leagaun' on the 1923 OS 6-inch map.
