What is recorded here

Not even marked on official maps, the stone hides in a Drumbrawn hollow where high ground blocks every exit. It rises one metre tall, irregular and ancient enough that locals still treat it as a marker from before human memory. You can stare into the hollow until the edges blur, but the stone does not flinch. It waits for human smallness to remember itself.

Not marked on any OS ed. Sited in a hollow surrounded on all sides by high ground. Large irregularly shaped block (H 1.03m; dims. 1.05m x 0.28m). Regarded in the locality as an antiquity. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cavan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1995). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 22 December 2008
