Image of Moohane (Standing Stones) by bawn79

I think there is evidence of some working of the hill top to make it more conical to put the standing stone on

Moohane

Standing Stones

bawn79 Oct 16, 2006

The OS map has two standing stones here in Moohane. However on investigation I could only find one. The one on the top of a small hill. It is about 1.6m high and the hill it is on gives it a commanding view.
I think Knockfennel and Knockadoon can be easily seen from here.
