What is recorded here

Kildoney Glebe holds a .92m stone, wide as a man’s outstretched arms, set beside a stream in rough pasture. It is the kind of place where people once dropped a stone to mark a boundary, a death or a promise, then forgot which. The hollow keeps that much of the intention alive even when the name has slipped away.

A standing stone .92m high × 1m wide, E-W. Situated on rough pasture land, in a hollow beside a stream. The above description was derived from the 'Archaeological Survey of County Donegal.
