Bizarrely if you look in the right back-ground you will see a clump of grass which I have since discovered is a barrow!

Toorfiba

Standing Stone / Menhir

bawn79 Jul 31, 2006

This standing stone is about 1.25m high with a peaked top. After the old houses on the OS map there is a gate. If you have a look over the ditch you can see the tree from the pictures attached.
As i was leaving on the road I found it unusual, Keeper Hill just appears over the hills in the background. Im not sure whether you can see it from the standing stone.
