What is recorded here

A standing stone c. 1m high × 0.5m wide; N-S. It stands on top of a low, probably natural, mound. A previous account (Davies) noted that the stone was also standing near the SW edge of a 'pear shaped artificial platform about 1 foot high and 10 × 6 yards'. Situated in good land on top of a hill overlooking Lough Eske. The above description was derived from the 'Archaeological Survey of County Donegal. A description of the field antiquities of the County from the Mesolithic Period to the 17th century.' Compiled by: Brian Lacey with Eamon Cody, Claire Cotter, Judy Cuppage, Noel Dunne, Vincent Hurley, Celie O'Rahilly, Paul Walsh and Seán Ó Nualláin (Lifford: Donegal County Council, 1983). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated. Date of upload: 22 September 2008
