Standing stone in Glenacarney

Standing stone

What is recorded here

Glenacarney holds two standing stones, one measured at three and a half feet high on James Curtin's land. Bowman recorded them in 1934, but the exact spot has slipped from human memory. The stone still stands somewhere in the valley, waiting for boots to find it again.
One of two standing stones (9998) recorded by Bowman (1934, 87) on James Curtin's land, '...31/2ft high, 8 feet by 51/2 feet'. Exact location not known. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 4: North Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2000). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 14 January 2009

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
