Standing stone in Drumahaire

Standing stone

What is recorded here

Standing stone in Drumahaire is a 1.7m limestone upright with a pointed top and solution holes, set NE-SW on a high bluff above the Bonet River near a gatehouse and castle that may be modern. It is small enough to touch, old enough to withhold explanation, and placed where the land shows itself rather than hides behind a wall.
Situated on a high bluff overlooking the Bonet River near the gatehouse of the fortified house (LE014-008001-), and castle (LE014-009---), but which is probably a modern feature. It is a limestone upright (dims 0.5m x 0.2m; H 1.7m) with solution holes and a pointed top oriented NE-SW. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Leitrim' compiled by Michael J. Moore (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2003). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 23 September 2008
