Standing stone in Kilnahulla Beg

Standing stone

What is recorded here

Kilnahulla Beg in County Cork, Ireland, held one standing stone in the field of W. O'Connell. Bowman recorded it in 1934 as 3ft high and about 6ft in girth, already removed from its original place and lying beside a fence. The stone may have marked a boundary, a meeting place or a forgotten loss, but human hands moved it before it could give that answer away.
Bowman (1934, 475) recorded one standing stone in this townland; '...in W. O'Connell's, removed from original site, now lying by fence: 3ft by c. 6ft in girth'. 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
