Standing Stone in Co. Waterford

5.5 km SW of Kilmnacthomas, across 3 fields to the E of the road to Stradbally are the remains of a souterrain which was part of a monastic site and which, not untypically, used 10 old ogam stones as roof-lintels. Some of these have now been erected above ground, and are handsome.
50 metres SSE of the souterrain is a bullaun-stone.
