What is recorded here

Located on the landscaped open space of Cloich Choirneal housing estate in Balrothery Village. It is four-sided with a distinct E-W axis (H 1.5m; 2, L 1.25m; Wth 0.95m). There are a series of plough marks on the lower portion of its W face (Healy 1975, 17). Archaeological test excavation (01E0255) and monitoring (01E0371) were undertaken in advance of the housing estate development. In 2010 a flower bed was placed around the standing stone obscuring its base. Compiled by: Geraldine Stout Updated by: Christine Baker Date of upload: 15 November 2014
