What is recorded here

Standing stone in Cashel (glentogher Ed) is a 2.18m high stone, 1m wide at the base, still set in pasture land in County Donegal. Its size is large enough to mark a boundary, a meeting place or a warning, yet no human name survives beside it. The land around it has changed from footprint to wheeltrack while the stone kept its shape.

Likely dating to the Bronze Age, this standing stone may have served a ritual or commemorative function. Its placement in open pasture suggests possible alignment with seasonal or ceremonial practices, though specific folklore or use remains unrecorded.
