CARRICKCROPPAN MASS ROCK


Map Reference: J034282 (3034, 3282)

This is a boulder, about 1m by 1m by 70cm thick, set into a field boundary. On the north face is a deeply incised cross about 80cm high by 60cm across. It has a small unpierced ring about 20cm diameter.



Scattered on top of the rock are some coins and the bush beside it was formerly used as a rag-tree. A souterrain is known to exist along the western field field boundary and close to this, in the next field, is a small standing stone.
