What is recorded here

Stone row in Na Leadhba Liatha, County Kerry, Ireland. Lynch recorded three stones protruding one foot above ground beside a boulder-burial, the central marker a white quartz boulder. The field is now ploughed, leaving only one prostrate stone a metre from the burial, yet local memory insists it once stood upright. The row may have aligned breath, shadow or journey before the plough erased its shape.

Lynch recorded an 'alignment' of stones adjacent to the boulder-burial at N, three of the stones protruding one foot (.3m) above the ground surface (1902b, 336). The central stone was a boulder of white quartz. Today the field is ploughed and only one prostrate stone, 1.35m long and located 1m NW of the boulder-burial, survives. It formerly stood upright (local information). 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. 379. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 28 July 2013
