Standing stone in Muinganine

Standing stone

What is recorded here

Muinganine holds one of three stones recorded by Bowman in 1934 on P. Jone's farm, measuring 2ft 10in by 6ft 3in girth. The exact spot has slipped from local memory, but the stone likely marked a boundary, a burial or a warning across generations. People may have touched its rough skin before journeys, asked it to remember what they forgot, or simply left it alone because it belonged elsewhere.
One of three standing stones (10129, 10130) recorded by Bowman (1934, 650) on P. Jone's farm; '2ft 10in by 6ft 3in girth'. Exact location not known. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 4: North Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2000).
