There's a diagram of the markings here:

I saw this one on europreart.net, that's where I read about the possibility that the stone may have stood. There's a still standing stone row with a decorated stone somewhere on the Dingle peninsula also.

I also found it partly because of the fence visible in O'Connors photos on that site is visible through the gate as you pass!

Ardamore Q 521 000 :-)

It's a 3-stone row with an outlier and distroyed boulder burial - the only boulder burial to have been recorded in association with a stone row rather than a stone pair.

The outlier is 60m from the row and has the RA. It's 2.9m tall and the markings look as though they reach 2m up the stone. The tallest stone in the row is 3m high, while the smallest is just 1.65m tall.

Looks like a good candidate for a visit.
