The National Monuments Service's description
‘Gort an Ghalláin' is the local name given to 3 small fields forming a triangle of land bounded by 3 roadways (information: M. Ó Dubhshláine). This suggests the former presence of a standing stone.
The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 138. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
