What is recorded here
Cappagh More holds two stones, one standing and one fallen thirty metres north-west. The fallen block measures 3.65m long, 1.75m wide and 0.6m high, with a hole beneath its north end that may have been a socket for timber or ritual use. Whatever stood there before the stone fell, the hole preserves the shape of the missing part.
