What is recorded here

In a children's burial ground (KE097-003----). In a letter to H. G. Leask, dated 20 June 1939, Capt. D. B. O'Connell mentions a 'gallaun' facing a possible hut site (KE097-003002-) within the area of a 'Calluragh' in Killurly. There are no visible remains of this standing stone. (SMR file) A nearby ogham stone (KE097-003004-) is reputed to have come from this site. 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. 1026. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 30 July 2013

This remains an important historical record, but the official description says the monument is no longer visible or has been destroyed.

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
