The row of stones from Dromkeare is opposite the row of stones from Eightercua , near Lough Currane in the townland Dromkeare ( Irish Drom Caor , German "berry back") in the south of County Kerry in Ireland .

As with Eightercua, the row of stones , about seven meters long, oriented northeast-southwest , consists of four stones. The southernmost and largest stone is about 2.5 meters high and almost two meters wide at the base. At about 1.5 m and 1.0 m high, the third and fourth stones are also quite large. The second stone in the row is the smallest, less than half a meter high, it is almost hidden in a field wall.

Nearby are the Dromod Stone Circle and the Dromkeare Ogham Stone .
