What is recorded here

On the lower S-facing slope of Kilmacoliver Hill, overlooking the valley of the River Suir. Within Kilkieran graveyard (KK034-032002-), 2m N of the E end of an open-sided stone-walled rectangular grave-plot. The graveyard is located on the site of an early medieval monastery, as evidenced by four high crosses (KK034-032004-; KK034-032005-; KK034-032006-; KK034-032007-) within the graveyard. A conglomerate sandstone standing stone (H 0.77m; Wth at base 0.4m; tapering to 0.25) with pebble inclusions. The stone appears to be dressed to form a rounded profile at the top.
