Standing stone in Termons

Standing stone

What is recorded here

Not marked on the OS maps, this short standing stone is located in rough boggy pasture at the landward end of a small promontory which projects into Lough Currane. It is roughly D-shaped in plan, measuring a maximum of 1.1m x .75m; N-S. The sides rise almost vertically, reaching a height of 1.3m. Some packing stones are visible around the base of its N end. The above description is derived from A. O'Sullivan and J. Sheehan (compilers), 'The Iveragh peninsula: an archaeological survey of South Kerry'. Cork University Press (1996), no. 212. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 28 July 2013
