Knockroe

Standing Stone / Menhir

bawn79 Nov 6, 2006

This standing stone is in the vicinity of Lough Gur. Coming from Herbertstown take the next left and the follow the road. It is on the left-hand side and you shouldnt miss it. It is a little over a 1m tall.
It is in fact on unmarked standing stone which I confused previously with a marked stone farther up the road.
