Standing stone in Loughane East

Standing stone

What is recorded here

Lisnaraha ringfort still stands beside the pasture where a reddish stone once rose five feet five inches tall. Condon measured its width and thickness in 1916, capturing a marker that people had likely passed for generations before it vanished. The stone is gone now, leaving only the ringfort and the memory of a red shape breaking the green field.
In pasture, c. 35m NNE of Lisnaraha ringfort (8491). Removed. Condon (1916, 137) recorded 'reddish stone' (H 5ft 5ins; Wth 24ins; T 12ins). The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 3: Mid Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1997). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 14 January 2009
