- Special Protection Area: Lough Derg (Shannon) SPA 004058
- Proposed Natural Heritage Area: Lough Derg 000011
Recorded monuments
- TN013-021 Standing stone
Description
On a lower break of a N-facing slope in hilly upland terrain, gently sloping down to the shores of Lough Derg to the N. The standing stone is located halfway down a grassy field likely to be used for silage. Excellent view of Lough Derg to the N, some hills visible to the NE, but the view is very limited to the W, and blocked by the rising slope to the S. A standing stone with the long axis oriented E-W, composed of a grey sandstone conglomerate, with quartz pebble inclusions (H 1.14m on the upslope to 1.38m on the downslope). It is covered with quite a lot of moss and some lichen, particularly on its E and S sides. It is roughly square in plan (max Wth at base 0.90m x 0.97m), though the base appears as an irregular hexagon (Wth N 0.66m; NE 0.16m; E 0.64m; SE 0.22m; S 0.70m; W 0.77m). In profile the stone curves towards the W, which appears to be its natural shape, rather than as a result of the stone leaning over time. The top of the stone tapers to a triangle, which comes to a point on the W side. Compiled by: Anne-Julie Lafaye
- TN014-078001 Bullaun stone
Description
In pasture, in a slight hollow, on NE facing slope of rising ground overlooking Lough Derg to N and E, higher ground to W and SW. The shoreline of Lough Derg is 650m to NE. St. Conlan's church (TN014-015001-) and graveyard (TN014-015002-) 1.4km to SE. Second bullaun stone (TN014-078002-) 1.2m downslope to E. A roughly rectangular earthfast conglomerate boulder (dims. 1.8m x 2m; H 0.27m) with a single bowl-shaped water-filled hollow (top diam. 0.41m; base diam. 0.3m; D 0.2m) on its upper surface close to E edge of stone. According to local tradition these stones were believed to be the site of a mass rock. Compiled by: Caimin O’Brien Date of upload: 07 July 2014
