What is recorded here

According to correspondence dating to 1939, a possible stone row stood in 'Drinaglough' near Ballydehob (SMR file). As there is no townland of that name in the area, it is presumed that this is a local corruption or variant of the name Dereennaclogh, a townland to the N of Ballydehob. No further details are recorded about this monument. The correspondent also mentions the occurrence of a possible standing stone pair (CO131-065----) and a possible cairn (CO131-068----) in the area. Despite enquiries in 2005, the exact location of this possible row is unknown. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009).

From the National Monuments Service (Archaeological Survey of Ireland) record CO131-067
