Standing stone

What is recorded here

Mountinfant holds a standing stone on T. Fitzgerald's land, measuring 2 ft 1in by 6ft 3in girth. Bowman recorded it in 1934, but its exact location has been lost. The stone may still stand buried under bracken or forgotten beneath a farm lane, waiting for someone to remember the field where it was seen.
