What is recorded here
Knockroe holds a standing stone in County Kilkenny, yet even its own record remains locked inside a Dublin archive rather than shared with the world. The stone waits patiently while bureaucracy delays its story, turning ancient local memory into a game of administrative patience. Perhaps it marks a boundary, a burial or a forgotten promise, but the official silence forces everyone to keep wondering instead of knowing.
The Archaeological Survey of Ireland (ASI) is in the process of providing information on all monuments on The Historic Environment Viewer (HEV). Currently the information for this record has not been uploaded. To access available information for research purposes please make an appointment in advance with the Archive Unit (open Fridays 10.00 am – 5.00 pm), Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, The Custom House, Dublin 1 D01W6XO or email NMarchive@housing.gov.ie.
The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
