The National Monuments Service's description
Marked on the most recent ed. OS 6-inch map close to St Broghan's stone but on the first ed. in a field fence to the W. It is not now to be seen at either location. According to Comerford (1883, 124-5) it was situated beside St Broghans stone (OF027-009002-) and was possibly of recent origin.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Offaly' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1997). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
