What is recorded here

Situated in flat pasture. Large block of limestone (max. dims. H 2.5m, 1.7m by 1.5m in section) with long axis orientated NNW-SSE. The ENE face of the stone is covered by small depressions resembling cup marks, but these appear to be natural solution-holes. The above description is derived from both the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Louth' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1986) and the 'Archaeological Survey of County Louth' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1991). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. See the attached view from E Date of upload: 17 July 2007
