The National Monuments Service's description
In a children's burial ground (KE097-003----). In a letter to H. G. Leask, dated 20 June 1939, Capt. D. B. O'Connell mentions a 'gallaun' facing a possible hut site (KE097-003002-) within the area of a 'Calluragh' in Killurly. There are no visible remains of this standing stone. (SMR file)
A nearby ogham stone (KE097-003004-) is reputed to have come from this site.
The above description is derived from A. O'Sullivan and J. Sheehan (compilers), 'The Iveragh peninsula: an archaeological survey of South Kerry'. Cork University Press (1996), no. 1026. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
