Marked only on the 1926 ed. of the OS 6-inch map as Clogh na gCrann, it is more correctly called 'Cloch na gCeann'. Originally situated at the E side of a road towards the top of a S-facing slope. This is a sandstone boulder (dims. c. 1m x 1m x 1m) on which it is believed the heads of executed criminals were once displayed. It is now on the W side of the W road bank (WA003-107----), c. 30m distant from its original location .
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Waterford' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1999). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
