Standing stone in Ballinwear

Standing stone

What is recorded here

Situated on a SE-facing slope in undulating pasture-land. A standing stone marked on 1st ed. (1843) OS 6-inch map but not on subsequent 2nd ed. (1903) implying it was removed between these dates. No visible trace of standing stone in the field or surrounding field boundary, the W boundary indicated on the OS 6-inch maps has also been removed. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Tipperary. Vol. 1 - North Tipperary' compiled by Jean Farrelly and Caimin O'Brien (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2002). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 22 September 2008

This remains an important historical record, but the official description says the monument is no longer visible or has been destroyed. The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
