What is recorded here

This standing stone is located high on the S slopes of Foilclogh mountain, overlooking the mouth of the River Inny to SW. It stands in rough pastureland and is incorporated into a field fence. Inclining slightly to S, it is a narrow slab which tapers irregularly towards the top. It stands to a maximum height of 1.9m, and is .58m wide and .15m thick at base; ENE-WSW. 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. 148. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 28 July 2013
