What is recorded here

Condon (1916, 69, No. 28) recorded stone '51 inches high, 80 inches broad, and 5 inches thick', in this townland. He located it in '....the third field' from pair of standing stones (6562). Grove-White (1905-25, vol.1, 329) located the same stones '....in the second field to the SW of Lissard stone circle (6448) and about 300 yards distant'. Exact location cannot be determined, not known locally. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 3: Mid Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1997). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 14 January 2009

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.

The map shows the centre of the officially named townland area, not the monument. The government record does not identify the exact monument point.
