A pair of standing stones was located on the lower slopes of Teermoyle mountain, overlooking the Ferta river to SW. The following description occurs in OSM: ‘...a huge standing stone or flag 6ft wide at bottom gradually tapering to a point at top and is 7ft high . . . and adjoining it there is a square stone 7ft high . . .'. Only the latter stone survives. It measures 2.2m high and .8m x .5m at base; WNW-ESE. It is irregular in outline and tapers in elevation, while its W side exhibits a pronounced overhang (Ó Nualláin 1988,250).
The above description is derived from A. O'Sullivan and J. Sheehan (compilers), 'The Iveragh peninsula: an archaeological survey of South Kerry'. Cork University Press (1996), no. 126. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
