I have gotten an email from an American photographer who was in Ireland recently and thinks he stumbled across two standing stones near the town of Quinn (county Clare?), within a few hundred yards or so of each other. I have had a look and havent seen anything on megalithomania and irishmegaliths but the two photos he sent do look like genuine standing stones:

Can anyone help this guy out with a name/location or any other info on the two stones? Maybe they are just cattle scratchers but they look quite nice of they are real.

I'm in that area soon. Does he give any more info on getting to them? If so can you mail it to me?

I'll check the OS out later, too.

Looking at the OS there are several candidates within 3 miles of Quinn. I'll check a couple of them out at the weekend.
