Whiteleas

Stone Circle (Destroyed)

Miscellaneous

Liam Price visited the circle in 1929 and was unimpressed:

"Whiteleas. The stone circle is S of Whiteleas House, about 600yds, and just N of the county boundary. It is a roughly raised circular piece of ground with a number of boulders in disorder about it, and two or more in the centre. A very rough monument. Lord W. Fitzgerald mentions it. The only noticeable thing about it is there are two white quartz boulders on N part, and one on E."
21st April 1929
