What is recorded here
Baurgorm holds two possible standing stones on an E-facing slope, one rectangular and north-south, the other a hundred metres west-northwest. The first rises one metre, long enough to mark a line but slender enough to hide beside a fence post. Cattle may have walked past it for generations, treating the stone as ordinary while people measured distance, watched weather or remembered a loss.
In pasture, on an E-facing slope. This possible standing stone (1.65m x 0.2m; H 1m) is rectangular in section and is orientated N-S. Another possible standing stone (CO118-091----) is situated c. 100m to the WNW.
The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009).
