Standing stone

What is recorded here

Standing stone in Gortloughra, County Cork, Ireland: in pasture on a south-facing slope, an ENE-WSW stone, 0.8m x 0.4m and 0.6m high, stood in clear view of another standing stone. In 2007 an extensive inspection failed to locate it, suggesting removal or concealment. The area may still hold the lost stone beneath grass, bramble or forgotten boundary work.
