What is recorded here
Standing stone in Ballybrack (rathdown By., Glencullen Ed) is a broad triangular stone on the SW moorland slope of Two Rock Mountain, its long edge aligned north to south beside the Glencullen River valley. It rises through shallow peat without visible packing stones, suggesting people set it rather than the mountain simply exposing rock. In that quiet exposed place, the stone may have marked a boundary, a path or a promise made under open sky.
Situated on the SW open moorland slope of Two Rock Mountain on the N side of the Glencullen River valley. A standing stone (0.97m L and 0.3m T; 0.85m H) with a broad triangular outline and its long axis is orientated N–S. No packing stones are evident as the peat cover is c. 0.2m deep (pers. comm. Ivor Kenny, 19 September 2014).
