What is recorded here
According to Power (1908, 30), 'Not many yards from the outer rampart of the lios stood (till a dozen years since), near north-east corner of the field, a tall and slender pillar stone...A depression in the soil, due to falling in of a small subterranean limestone cave, marks at present the spot where the pillar stood. The latter has been broken up for fence repairing material'. The 'lios' referred to is the trivallate ringfort at Derrygrath Upper (TS082-013001-). The precise original location of this standing stone and the location of the fragments is unknown.
