Re: Ireland - Corr Aille Spiral Stone

Walking in Dingle last week, loads of great early Christian sites and standing stones though no stone circles.
While visiting Kilmalkedar Church, came across an information board about the 'Corr Aille Spiral Stone' only fairly recently discovered. Joined up with a couple of people determined to find it and followed the Pilgrim's Way ('Way of the Saints') posts to the top of Reenconnell Hill. One of the couple went on ahead and triumphantly found the spiral stone in a rocky outcrop at the very top of the hill. An amazing spot with views of two bays and on the way to Brandon Mountain which is the route of the Pilgrim's Way. The information board suggested it was pre-Christian ... does anyone know more about this. Would be grateful for more information and whether it should be added as a rock art site on TMA.
