What is recorded here
Standing stone in Cloghleafin (condons and Clongibbon By., Kilgullane Par.) is a 1.25m subrectangular stone in level pasture, its long axis pointing north-south. It stands about 150m NNW of ringfort (12308), small enough to overlook yet distinct enough to mark, perhaps a boundary, a memorial or a warning. Cows may have walked past it for generations while people measured distance, claimed land or remembered someone dead.
In level pasture, c. 150m NNW of ringfort (12308). Stone (H 1.25m; 0.4m x 0.3m) is subrectangular in plan, long axis N-S.
