    1839. Or, photo #39.

    It is possible receding glacier planted it there or if very steep terrain to the right it tumbled down, but the base of the boulder looks notched for the plinth to hold it upright and a tree planted just in case to keep it all in place. You know Irish are clever people, just not clever enough to make the whole of Ireland a Republic under their own flag.

    The stone has a wikipedia page

    It's on the list of State Monuments as a portal tomb.
