What is recorded here

Standing stone in Lissylisheen, County Clare, Ireland, is an irregular limestone block about 1.75m high and 1.5m wide in pastureland. It points east-west, tapers toward the top, and has hazel scrub hiding part of its south side. About 80m to the northeast, a large field system holds enclosures, cairns and hut sites, suggesting the stone still belongs to a busy landscape rather than a forgotten one.

Likely dating to the Late Neolithic or Bronze Age, this standing stone may have functioned as a boundary marker or ritual monument within a broader landscape of field systems and enclosures. No specific folklore is recorded, but its orientation and placement suggest a possible ceremonial or territorial use.
