What is recorded here

This stone was discovered during 1994 when a field bank was removed. It is a rough sandstone pillar with a blunt pointed top and a triangular cross-section (H 0.45m; dims c. 0.25m x c. 0.17m). There are four incised V motifs on one face. (Corlett 1999; Eogan 2011, 13) Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 3 March, 2017
Likely dating to the Neolithic or Bronze Age, the V-shaped incisions may represent symbolic or ritual markings, possibly linked to territorial, ceremonial, or astronomical functions. No specific folklore is recorded for this site.
