What is recorded here

Rectangular flat-topped block of stone (H 1.4m; L 3m; Wth 2m) known locally as Bishop's Rock. Solution holes on upper surface, traditionally regarded as holy water font. Stone removed from original position on parish boundary c. 40 years ago. It now lies c. 60m to NE. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 1: West Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1992). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 14 January 2009
