- On the shores of Lough Ree in the parish of Rathcline (Clyne's Fort) are to be found many large boulders of limestone. These stones are to be seen quite close to the water's edge.
One such is to be found about 300 yards due north of a small strip of wood (locally known as Peces Plantation) which runs down to the water's edge.
