What is recorded here
Meennaraheeny holds three standing stones on Mrs O'Connell's land, one measuring 2ft 8in x 1ft 4in x 1ft 10in. Bowman recorded them in 1934, but their exact location has been lost. They may have marked a boundary, a burial or a gathering place, yet no clear purpose remains. The stones themselves are gone from knowledge, leaving only a small rectangular shadow in the earth.
One of three standing stones (10115, 10117) recorded by Bowman (1934, 82) on Mrs O'Connell's land; '(b) 2ft 8in x 1ft 4in x 1ft 10in'. Exact location not known. Bowman (ibid.) also recorded two adjacent stones (9866) on Mrs O'Connell's land.
