Thread Name: Origin: Stone outside Dan Murphy's Door (Patterson
Subject: RE: Origins: Stone Outside Dan Murphy's Door & Garden
Dan Murphys is a bar in Smeen, County Kerry, a few miles south of Kilarney. Outside the bar there is a large stone, probably a ton in weight, that looks like the bar was built next to it, rather than it having been brought there.
Conversely it may have been a mounting stone for climbling aboard horses
