What is recorded here
Standing stone in Ballynorig East, a five-foot-six-inch stone at Parkgullaun, still points upward where fields and memory bend around it. People may have set it, admired it, or feared it before written rules reached Kerry. Its height is small enough to touch and old enough to dwarf a life.
Parkgullaun - Páirc an Ghalláin. A standing stone five feet six inches above the surface (OSNB, 290).
The above description is derived from C. Toal, ‘North Kerry Archaeological Survey’. Dingle. Brandon in association with FAS Training and Employment Authority (1995), no. 26. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
