I presume that you mean outside the plot region?
If so, you can use something like the following:
# Adjust the plot margins to make room for the
# legend on the right side. See ?par
par(mar = c(5, 4, 4, 10) + 0.1)
barplot(1:10)
box()
# Set xpd to allow legend placement outside
# plot region. See ?par
par(xpd = TRUE)
# Left click on the right side of the window where you want
# the legend. See ?locator
l <- locator(1)
# Now put the legend where you clicked
# See ?legend
legend(l$x, l$y, legend = "Legend Here")
