- Old StonesBeside the house now occupied by Myles Bradley on the farm of My McVeigh of Drewstown, Kells Co. Meath are three very large stones, roughly of rectangular shape.
They are all nearly the same size, about 5' long 1' height and 1.5' wide.
They now lie on top of other, but formerly one slab lay on the other two forming a kind of table. The name of The Druid's Altar was given to them.
