What is recorded here
Glenlara holds two unlocated standing stones set eighteen metres apart, one measured at two feet high and ten feet four inches around. Bowman recorded the pair in 1934 inside M. O'Keeffe's land, yet neither marker survives on the open ground today. They may have been buried, broken or simply forgotten, but the distance between them still shapes the field like a ghostly room.
One of two unlocated standing stones (10008), c. 18m apart, recorded by Bowman (1934, 116) in this townland; 'In M. O'Keeffe's, 2ft high, 10ft 4in girth'.
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.
