Doughill submitted by frogcottage42 : There are packing stones visible at the base of two of the stones. This one is about .9m high and located at Derrylahan V 96379,70202 550m North of where Doughill circle stood (Vote or comment on this photo)

Doughill
Doughill submitted by frogcottage42 : Despite many photos of stones that may once have been at this site it is obvious that nothing remains. This group may well be another ruined circle lying 550m to the North of Doughill. There are several stones still in place and numerous others strewn about. At least two stones appear to be associated with burials which is a factor common to circles in this area. (Vote or comment on this photo)

Doughill
Doughill submitted by frogcottage42 : This low small hill is the actual site of this destroyed stone circle. This circle had been previously described as " a circle of sixteen stones, none over four feet high but some of them four feet broad" Sketches showed a typical Cork/kerry style circle probably consisting of seventeen orthostats enclosing an area of about 9m dia. ((ONuallain) 1984a, 27 No.42) (Vote or comment on this photo)
