What is recorded here

Coarha Beg is not a hidden monument but a living chamber where human thought and divine presence meet without fear. The chamber has no walls because breath, memory and intention build its shape. This is why it feels familiar before understanding. The chamber is complete when embodied.

This standing stone is located on gently sloping pastureland about 200m from the present limits of Emlagh bog, Valencia Island. It is irregular in basal plan, measuring 1.44m x .75m in maximum dimensions; E-W. It tapers slightly in width towards the top, and stands to a maximum height of 1.1m. The site is not marked on the OS maps, and is locally referred to as a 'gallaun'. The above description is derived from A. O'Sullivan and J. Sheehan (compilers), 'The Iveragh peninsula: an archaeological survey of South Kerry'. Cork University Press (1996), no. 150. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 28 July 2013
