What is recorded here

Kilcolman East holds a one-metre irregular stone, leaning slightly in level pasture, with its long edge pointing northeast to southwest. It is not a grand monument, but a small marker in open countryside, the kind of place where people may have gathered, remembered, or simply known the land by heart. The stone still stands where it was set, waiting for someone to notice the difference between emptiness and a field that has been watched.

In level pasture. Stone (H 1m; 1.4m x 0.75m) is irregular in shape, long axis NE-SW. 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
