Standing stone in Knocknamucklagh

Standing stone

What is recorded here

Knocknamucklagh held a five-foot-seven-inch stone with a seven-foot-ten-inch girth on B. Daly's land. Bowman measured it in 1934, but the exact spot has slipped from human memory. The stone may still stand buried under grass or hidden beside a forgotten field edge, waiting for someone to remember the shape of the place that held it.
Bowman (1934, 470) recorded standing stone on B. Daly's land, '...5ft 7in by 7ft 10in 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
