The Murrisk Standing Stones are a small group of prehistoric stones that have stood in the open field for centuries, with Croagh Patrick as an imposing backdrop. Their exact function is unknown, but they are often linked to ancient rituals or landscape markings. The simplicity of the stones is beautifully highlighted by their open location and the sightlines to the bay and the mountain.
