Standing Stones in Co. Kerry

Standing on a rise above cutaway bog, two stones about 100m apart show above relict field walls.
They are shown as 'standing stones' on the OS
The larger of these has fallen toward the West but was probably around 2m tall, it has been incorporated into a field wall which is entirely buried.
The other stone is similarly included within field walls but only remnants are visible.
