What is recorded here

Standing stone in Stealroe rises 1.1 metres from the Kerry ground, its green sandstone edge facing east and west beside a levelled enclosure. It may have marked a boundary, a meeting place or a warning, yet no human name remains attached to the choice. The stone still points across the landscape like a forgotten arrow, waiting for someone to remember what it warned or welcomed.

Associated with a levelled enclosure (KE056-020----). Upright stone (H 1.1m; 1.05m x 0.53m) of green sandstone; orientated E-W. Compiled by: Ursula Egan Date of upload: 13 March 2013

Likely dating to the Late Neolithic or Early Bronze Age, this standing stone may have marked a ritual or territorial boundary within the associated enclosure. Its orientation and placement suggest ceremonial use, though specific folklore or symbolic meaning is not recorded.
