Derreeny (285), Iveragh Peninsula (Co. Kerry)

3D Model

This is a small part of a very prominent boulder in Derreeny (Iveragh Peninsula, Co. Kerry). The carvings are very difficult to see, especially on a cloudy day. The top of the hill in which this boulder is located is crowned by an abandoned settlement that in many cases respected the prehistoric carved rocks. Other examples were incorporated into boundary walls. The whole area is dotted with prehistoric carved rocks.
