What is recorded here
Laharan Mountain still drops north into that forgotten valley, and the stone may still stand where Condon measured it. A man climbed the slope in 1916, laid a rule against the rock, and wrote down thirty-two inches of local memory. The valley has swallowed the exact spot since then.
Condon (1916, 147, no. 132) noted standing stone '32inches high, 16inches wide, and 6 inches thick' in this townland, on N slope of Laharan Mountain. Exact location not known.
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.
