What is recorded here
Com Na Heorna Thoir and Coom Cottage in County Kerry, Ireland. The standing stone stood near Coom Cottage for generations. Building works broke that arrangement when the stone collapsed. People moved it into the garden beside a septic tank. It still stands there, reduced from a marker in a yard to a strange neighbour of modern plumbing.
This is the present location of the standing stone which originally stood c. 50m to the N in the yard of Coom Cottage (see KE106-131----). During building works to the cottage c. 10 years ago, the stone collapsed and was relocated to the garden of the house where it now stands adjacent to a septic tank.
