Standing stone in Meenkeeragh

Standing stone

What is recorded here

Stand before the stone in Meenkeeragh and it returns the stare, unblinking after every human lifetime. Whether it marked a boundary, a burial or a warning remains unknown, but the stone still stands while kingdoms and memories have broken like waves on Donegal shores. What it witnessed is lost; what it endures is not.
