Along the main axis. In the background it is possible to see the first stone row.


We visited this place because we were in the area and the OS map showed two red dots.

At Kilcullen South there are two stone rows. One is south of the local road, the other one is north of it.
In this page the north stone row is featured.
The stones are up on a slope in a pasture. From the cattle gate we walked northwest for about 70 metres. There are three stones, two of them are lying on the ground, the northwesternmost one is still standing. The three stones are aligned roughly east-west (100°-280°) and the total length of the alignment is 4.10 metres.
The stone still standing leans to the south by 16°. This has a strange shape, with a wide base and a narrow top, with a shoulder halfway up on the west side. This stone measures 1.50 metres of height, it is 82 centimetres wide at the base and 37 centimetres wide at the top and about 37 centimetres thick.
The lying stone at the other end of the alignment is 1.37 metres long.
Looking at this stone row from the northwest the first stone row is visible in the opposite field to the southeast (115°).
