What is recorded here

Mortons stands at the edge of Blackbog in County Kilkenny, a vertical marker beside wet ground where people have walked for generations. Whether it marks a boundary, a burial or a warning remains unknown, but the stone still catches attention because it refuses to disappear into the marsh.
