Pat Kearney's Big Stone

We like making up names for things in this part of the world. Pat Kearney's little house nearby has crumbled to its foundations but the man is not forgotten. Another descriptive name for the structure is 'Finn's Finger', Finn being Finn MacCoul, the legendary builder of the Giant's causeway. It is thought the name derives from the tall slender upright stones resembling a digit? Megalithic sites always astound as to how they were assembled with the sheer size of this capstone being particularly intriguing.
