Stone row from Maulinward
The small stone row of Maulinward is located in a valley in the eponymous townland ( Irish Meall an Bhaird ) east of Durrus and west of the road N71, on a flat pasture, about 100 m northwest of the Durrus River in County Cork in Ireland .
The northeast-southwest oriented, about 4.2 m long stone row consists of three standing stones. The northeast stone is 0.6 m high, 0.7 m wide and 0.4 m thick. A 1.5 m long stone lies northwest on the ground. The next stone is 1.2 m away and is 0.75 m high, 0.7 m wide and 0.5 m thick. The southwest stone is 1.15 m away. It is 0.75 m high, 0.9 m wide and 0.5 m thick. About 2.0 m north are the remains of a small cairn .
The ogham stone
The Ogham stone from Maulinward is near the entrance to the ruins of the Maulinward Church. The front is marked with an incised Celtic cross and one side bears an Oghamin script . The West Cork archaeological survey refers to the stone as a cross slab. The stone was found by Jeremiah Hurley while plowing in 1933.
The Boulder Burial of Ballycommane ( Irish Baile Uí Chomáin ), the menhir pair of Ballycommane and the sacred spring of Maulinward are nearby.
