Standing stone in Nohaval Upper

Standing stone

What is recorded here

One of six standing stones in Nohaval Upper, it stands 1.2m high and 1.6m wide, tilted NE-SW inside a field fence. Bowman recorded the group in 1934, but the stone itself may be far older, perhaps marked by hands that never learned to write. It is not hidden, yet most people walk past it as though it were only rock.
One of six standing stones (10137, 10138, 10139, 10140, 10141) recorded by Bowman (1934, 659) in this townland; '(b) In J. Daly's'. Incorporated into NW-SE field fence. Stone (H 1.2m; Wth 1.6m) is irregular in plan, long axis NE-SW. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 4: North Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2000). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 14 January 2009
