What is recorded here

Toon holds a thin rectangular stone, one metre twenty-five tall and barely ten centimetres thick, leaning NE-SW forty-five metres west of the main complex. It is so narrow it resembles a knife edge dropped into the earth rather than a monument built by human hands. Perhaps it marks a boundary, a warning or a forgotten prayer, but its sharpness suggests exclusion more than invitation.

A possible standing stone (KE070-066002-) occurs 45m W of the complex. Rectangular in elevation, it stands to a maximum height of 1.25m and measures .85m x .1m at base; NE-SW. The above description is derived from A. O'Sullivan and J. Sheehan (compilers), 'The Iveragh peninsula: an archaeological survey of South Kerry'. Cork University Press (1996), no. 65. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 28 July 2013
