What is recorded here

Overlooking the Caragh river from a SE facing slope, this standing stone is located in poorly drained, rocky land at the W end of Macgillycuddy's Reeks. Roughly triangular in elevation, it stands 1.9m high and is of approximately rectangular basal plan, measuring 1.42m x 1m; NE-SW. Some packing stones are visible around its base. 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. 162. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 28 July 2013
