What is recorded here

Sheheree in County Kerry holds a small upright stone inside the southeast quadrant of an ancient rath. The rectangular stone stands forty-eight centimetres tall, pointing east-northeast and west-southwest while another stone waits farther north. People may have set them there to mark a boundary, honour a dead person or simply watch the sky tilt across the grass.

In the SE quadrant of a rath (KE067-101----). An upright stone (dims. 0.45m x 0.28m; H 0.48m) roughly rectangular in plan and orientated ENE-WSW. Another standing stone (KE067-101001-) lies a short distance to the N. Compiled by: Elizabeth Byrne, Ursula Egan and Sheila Ronan, Archaeological Survey Unit, University College, Cork.

Probably dating to the Early Christian or Bronze Age period, the stone may have had ritual or territorial significance, possibly linked to the nearby rath. Its orientation and placement suggest it could be part of a wider ceremonial or funerary landscape.
