What is recorded here
Cashelisky holds a rectangular stone fourteen and a half hands high, tilted northwest to southeast across level pasture. It narrows slightly before rounding into the sky like a finger pointing at something forgotten. People may have stood beside it during storms, weddings or burials, using its steady shape to measure their own small lives.
In level pasture, in an area of rolling countryside. This standing stone (0.8m x 0.55m; H 1.45m) is rectangular in plan and is orientated NW-SE. The stone narrows slightly as it rises to a rounded top.
The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009).
