Standing stone in Ballycuddy

Standing stone

What is recorded here

Ballycuddy holds a rounded conglomerate boulder, one metre tall and ninety centimetres wide, beside a rath in open pastureland. The stone may mark an old boundary or simply be a glacial leftover, yet its oval shape and steady presence suggest human attention. A person may have pointed at it during a storm, named it without writing, or left it alone because it belonged to the land. Either way, it still stands where the grass grows and the rath waits forty-five metres east.
In pastureland. This possible standing stone consists of a rounded conglomerate boulder (H 1m; Wth 0.9m; T 0.4m) that is roughly oval in plan. A rath (GA105-015----) lies c. 45m to the E. Compiled by: Olive Alcock Date of upload: 10 July 2017
