What is recorded here

Standing stone in Lissagriffin stands on a sun-warmed slope above Barley Cove, its broad face angled toward the sea. A person may have placed it there to mark a boundary, honour a dead name or simply watch the water change colour. It still does that without praise, patience or fear.

In pasture, on a S-facing slope to the E of Kilmoe church and overlooking Barley Cove. This standing stone (1.7m x 0.85m; H 1.1m) is orientated NE-SW. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009). Date of upload: 22 December 2009

Likely dating to the Bronze Age, this standing stone may have had ceremonial or territorial significance. Its orientation and location suggest a possible alignment with landscape features or seasonal markers, though specific folklore or use remains unrecorded.
