Nutgrove (Standing Stone / Menhir) by Rhiannon What you missed out on, Ryaner. I think it should be reinstated.

Ah that's great Rhiannon, and the old fieldnotes too. I think it snapped when it fell and is covering the base in its socket. ryaner Posted by ryaner

What a shame. You're probably right, the measurements don't quite add up I think. I guess at least it's still there, some people would have taken the opportunity to chop it up and cart it off. But maybe there's been a bit more respect in Ireland. Rhiannon Posted by Rhiannon
