What is recorded here

In rough hill pasture, on the SE side of a ridge, between Lough Inchiquin to the SE and Cloonee Lough Upper to the NW. B. Ó Cíobháin recorded a placename 'Cnocán an Ghalláin', in this townland (SMR file). There are no visible remains of any stone here. It is possible that the placename referred to the standing stone (KE101-012002-) which is named 'Gallaun' on the 1895-7 OS 6-inch map.

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.
