What is recorded here

Coorleagh holds a rectangular stone, two metres thirty-five long and barely a metre high, lying NNE-SSW on a rough pasture rise. It stands one metre west of an old enclosure, close enough to touch the boundary of human memory. The stone may have marked a door, a warning or a gift, but its angle and patience suggest it still waits for someone to remember why it was set.

On a rise, in undulating rough pasture. This standing stone (2.35m x 0.8m; H 1.15m) is rectangular in plan and is orientated NNE-SSW. It stands 1m to the W of an enclosure (KE102-085001-). The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Kerry. Volume I: South-West Kerry' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 30 May 2011
