Standing stone in Carrigmore

Standing stone

What is recorded here

Carrigmore held a standing stone on gently sloping pasture, but local memory says the stone has vanished without trace. That absence turns the field into a question rather than a display, inviting people to imagine what the stone marked before it disappeared.
In pasture, on land sloping gently to the S and E. According to local information, there was a standing stone at this location but it has been removed. There is no visible remains of this possible standing stone. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009). Date of upload: 22 December 2009

This remains an important historical record, but the official description says the monument is no longer visible or has been destroyed. The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
