What is recorded here

One stone still stands in Tullybogly, County Donegal, though a second vanished before modern cameras or careful hands could catch it. The survivor rises 2.4m, spreads 1.8m, and leans across the SW slope of a ridge like a forgotten marker for a route nobody remembers. Its lost partner may have fallen, been buried, or simply stopped mattering to the people who passed there. The ridge keeps both shadows even when only one stone still throws a line across the grass.

A standing stone 2.4m high × 1.8m wide × 1.2m thick; NNW-SSE. The 2nd edition of the OS 6-inch map shows two stones here but the 3rd edition notes a 'Standing stone' and a 'Standing stone (site of)'. There are no visible remains of the 2nd stone. Situated on the SW slope of a NE-SW running ridge. The above description was derived from the 'Archaeological Survey of County Donegal. A description of the field antiquities of the County from the Mesolithic Period to the 17th century.' Compiled by: Brian Lacey with Eamon Cody, Claire Cotter, Judy Cuppage, Noel Dunne, Vincent Hurley, Celie O'Rahilly, Paul Walsh and Seán Ó Nualláin (Lifford: Donegal County Council, 1983).

This remains an important historical record, but the official description says the monument is no longer visible or has been destroyed. The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
