What is recorded here

On the 2nd edition of the OS map a symbol, similar to that for a standing stone, is shown untitled here, on a NNW facing slope overlooking Tralee Bay and the adjacent lowlying coastal strip. A large boulder, 3.6m long, 1.05 to .3m wide and .6m thick, appears to have been fairly recently set resting on top of a field wall immediately to S. Perhaps it formerly stood upright, but the evidence is insufficient for definite classification. The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 153. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
