What is recorded here

This standing stone, on the S slopes of Knockmoylemore, commands a panoramic view over the broad valley through which the Garfinny, Owenalondrig and several smaller rivers flow towards Trabeg. Irregular in plan, the stone stands 1.58m high and measures a maximum of 1.05m wide x .45m thick. It tapers slightly towards the flat shouldered top; N-S. The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 82. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 3 August 2013
