Standing stone in Two Gneeves

Standing stone

What is recorded here

Two tall stones stood on Mrs O'Sullivan's land in County Cork, one measuring 2ft 3in high and 10ft 7in around. Bowman recorded them in 1934, but their exact position has been lost. They may have marked a boundary, a burial or a meeting place, yet no clear purpose survives. What remains is a shape large enough to see and old enough to disappear.
One of two standing stones (10176) recorded by Bowman (1934, 266) on Mrs O'Sullivan's land; '2ft 3in by 10ft 7in 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). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 14 January 2009
