Clodagh Standing Stones stand 4.8 km (3.0 mi) northeast of Drimoleague.[3]
Historyedit
The stones probably date to the Bronze Age period.[4]
The purpose of standing stones is unclear; they may have served as boundary markers, ritual or ceremonial sites, burial sites or astrological alignments.[5]
Descriptionedit
The stones are both about 1 m (3.3 ft) tall.[6][7]
