What is recorded here
Ballyhimmin in County Kilkenny holds a standing stone, yet the facts provided contain no story, date, purpose or visible shape. The missing details do not diminish the place; they refuse to solve it before watching it. A stone can carry more life when withheld from explanation, waiting for a person brave enough to sit beside it and remember what it showed.
