Non-notable structure. No indication that subject meets WP:GNG or WP:NBUILD. Even a generous reading of the concepts discussed/raised around the notability of artworks doesn't indicate notability. The structure (a war memorial) is one of many thousands such structures in Ireland (and millions globally). Unlike some others in the area, it is *not* included in the Record of Protected Structures as maintained by Kerry County Council (and so fails NBUILDING/GEOFEAT). It hasn't even been surveyed under the National Inventory of Architectural Heritage program (for even *potential future* protection). A search in other sources doesn't return any significant sources (to the extent that we can't even seem to say when it was erected, who sculpted it, etc). All I can find are passing mentions alongside other pieces of public art in the area. (I also note that WP:G5 might apply - as article appears to have been created by a SOCK of user who was then under a block/ban...) Guliolopez (talk) 15:54, 26 May 2023 (UTC)
